Class
Description
org.apache.tools.ant.listener.Log4jListener
Apache Log4j (1) is not developed any more. Last release is 1.2.17 from 26-May-2012 and contains vulnerability issues. Use the standard listener or your own custom listener instead.

org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Copyfile
The copyfile task is deprecated since Ant 1.2. Use copy instead.
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.CopyPath
this task should have never been released and was obsoleted by ResourceCollection support in Copy available since Ant 1.7.0. Don't use it.

This is because the latter has access to the (package scoped) WeakishReference(Object) constructor, and both that and this are thin facades on the underlying no-longer-abstract base class.
org.apache.tools.ant.util.ScriptRunner
Implementation moved to another location. Use org.apache.tools.ant.util.optional.ScriptRunner instead.
org.apache.tools.ant.util.SymbolicLinkUtils
Starting Ant 1.10.2, this class is now deprecated in favour of the Java `Files` APIs introduced in Java 7, for dealing with symbolic links
org.apache.tools.ant.util.WeakishReference
deprecated 1.7; will be removed in Ant1.8 Just use `WeakReference` directly.
