Annotation Interface Provides

@Target(METHOD)
@Retention(RUNTIME)
public @interface Provides

This annotation is part of the provider method DSL, it allows you to build bindings and even a subset of generators using methods declared in your modules.

Method return type and method qualifier annotation form a key that the resulting binding is bound to, its parameter types and their qualifier annotations form binding dependencies and its body forms the factory for the binding.

Note that provider methods are called using reflection, so if you need the best performance for some frequently-entered scopes consider using less declarative but reflection-free ModuleBuilder.bind(Key) binding DSL
