Ok. But I will quote you
"This happens when a deprecated method is called inside a static block. The annotation can only be added to a declaration and here it must be the whole class"

So the way you explained this before made it sound like any time there was any SM API usage in a static block, the entire class needed to be annotated.

Why has the explanation changed ?
