| This package is part of the Android[support library](https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/support-library)which is no longer maintained. The support library has been superseded by[AndroidX](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx)which is part of[Jetpack](https://developer.android.com/jetpack). We recommend using the AndroidX libraries in all new projects. You should also consider[migrating](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/migrate)existing projects to AndroidX. To find the AndroidX class that maps to this deprecated class, see the AndroidX support library[class mappings](https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/migrate/class-mappings).
