Description Andreas Sewe CLA 2016-10-18 07:08:51 EDT 
At the moment, the Rename Method dialog's "Mark as deprecated" checkbox only applies the @deprecated *Javadoc tag* to the original method.

If the source level is 1.5 or higher, it should also add the @Deprecated *annotation*.

Not sure whether this is worth a second checkbox or whether the existing "Mark as deprecated" checkbox should control both the Javadoc tag and the Java annotation.
