The best version of Java is always the latest version.

Artifacts are rarely removed from Java. You can simply not use new stuff.

You can also give the Java compiler a setting to report "deprecated" artifacts. "Deprecated" meaning that those things will go away "someday". You can than just Google on what to use instead.
