```
    Deprecated.
    
    Like Class.forName(String), but also works when the string represents a primitive type or a fully-qualified name (as opposed to a binary name).
    If the given name can't be found, this method changes the last '.' to a dollar sign ($) and tries again. This accounts for inner classes that are incorrectly passed in in fully-qualified format instead of binary format. (It should try multiple dollar signs, not just at the last position.)
    Recall the rather odd specification for Class.forName(String): the argument is a binary name for non-arrays, but a field descriptor for arrays. This method uses the same rules, but additionally handles primitive types and, for non-arrays, fully-qualified names.
    
    Parameters:
    
    className - name of the class
    
    Returns:
    
    the Class corresponding to className
    
    Throws:

    Does tilde expansion on a file name (to the user's home directory).

public static java.lang.String java_source(java.io.File name)
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Return a string version of the filename that can be used in Java source. On Windows, the file will return a backslash separated string. Since backslash is an escape character, it must be quoted itself inside the string.
    The current implementation presumes that backslashes don't appear in filenames except as windows path separators. That seems like a reasonable assumption.
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - file whose name to quote
    
    Returns:
    
    a string version of the name that can be used in Java source

public static <T> java.lang.Iterable<T> iteratorToIterable(java.util.Iterator<T> source)

    Deprecated.
    
    Converts an Iterator to an Iterable. The resulting Iterable can be used to produce a single, working Iterator (the one that was passed in).

Calling iteratorToIterable twice on the same argument can have similar problems, so don't do that.
    
    Type Parameters:
    
    T - the element type
    
    Parameters:
    
    source - the Iterator to be converted to Iterable
