Details:

I found the following new warning when compiling the default branch of
Octave.


  GEN      scripts/java/org/octave/JDialogBox.class
Note: org/octave/JDialogBox.java uses or overrides a deprecated API.
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:deprecation for details.



java -version
java version "1.7.0_95"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.6.4) (7u95-2.6.4-0ubuntu0.15.10.2)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.95-b01, mixed mode)


Someone who knows Java might take a look at the file
scripts/java/org/octave/JDialogBox.java and see if they can spot the problem. 
Or compile the .java file with -Xlint:deprecation as suggested and see if it
pinpoints the issue.

I've marked the bug as minor because most dialog boxes now use Qt widgets. 
It's only when running with Qt libraries that Octave falls back to Java dialog
boxes.
