     27  * <dd>The annotation you will use in your implementation classes to tell Guice
     28  *     where and how it should send in ("inject") the objects you depend on

     33  *     instructions for how Guice should handle injection -- for a particular
     34  *     set of interfaces.
     35  *
     36  * <dt>{@link com.google.inject.Binder}
     37  * <dd>The object that Guice passes into your {@link com.google.inject.Module}
     38  *     to collect these bindings.
     39  *
     40  * <dt>{@link com.google.inject.Provider}
     41  * <dd>The interface you will implement when you need to customize exactly how
     42  *     Guice creates instances for a particular binding.
