     30  * Annotates an interface or abstract class for which a fully-formed, dependency-injected
     31  * implementation is to be generated from a set of {@linkplain #modules}. The generated class will
     32  * have the name of the type annotated with {@code @ProductionComponent} prepended with
     33  * {@code Dagger}.  For example, {@code @ProductionComponent interface MyComponent {...}} will
     34  * produce an implementation named {@code DaggerMyComponent}.
     35  *
     36  * <p>Each {@link Produces} method that contributes to the component will be called at most once per
     37  * component instance, no matter how many times that binding is used as a dependency.
     38  * TODO(user): Decide on how scope works for producers.
     39  *
     40  * <h2>Component methods</h2>
     41  *
     42  * <p>Every type annotated with {@code @ProductionComponent} must contain at least one abstract
     43  * component method. Component methods must represent {@linkplain Producer production}.
     44  *
     45  * Production methods have no arguments and return either a {@link ListenableFuture} or
     46  * {@link Producer} of a type that is {@link Inject injected}, {@link Provides provided}, or
     47  * {@link Produces produced}. Each may have a {@link Qualifier} annotation as well. The following
     48  * are all valid production method declarations: <pre><code>
     49  *   ListenableFuture<SomeType> getSomeType();
     50  *   {@literal Producer<Set<SomeType>>} getSomeTypes();
     51  *   {@literal @Response ListenableFuture<Html>} getResponse();
     52  * </code></pre>
     53  *
     54  * <h2>Exceptions</h2>
     55  *
     56  * <p>When a producer throws an exception, the exception will be propagated to its downstream
     57  * producers in the following way: if the downstream producer injects a type {@code T}, then that
     58  * downstream producer will be skipped, and the exception propagated to its downstream producers;
     59  * and if the downstream producer injects a {@code Produced<T>}, then the downstream producer will
     60  * be run with the exception stored in the {@code Produced<T>}.
     61  *
     62  * <p>If a non-execution exception is thrown (e.g., an {@code InterruptedException} or
     63  * {@code CancellationException}), then exception is handled as in
     64  * {@link com.google.common.util.concurrent.Futures#transform}.
     65  * <!-- TODO(beder): Explain this more thoroughly, and update the javadocs of those utilities. -->

     89    * <li> A single abstract method with no arguments must exist, and must return the component.
     90    *      (This is typically the {@code build()} method.)
     91    * <li> All other abstract methods must take a single argument and must return void,

     93    * <li> There <b>must</b> be an abstract method whose parameter is
     94    *      {@link java.util.concurrent.Executor}.
     95    * <li> Each component dependency <b>must</b> have an abstract setter method.
     96    * <li> Each module dependency that Dagger can't instantiate itself (i.e., the module
     97    *      doesn't have a visible no-args constructor) <b>must</b> have an abstract setter method.
     98    *      Other module dependencies (ones that Dagger can instantiate) are allowed, but not
     99    *      required.
    100    * <li> Non-abstract methods are allowed, but ignored as far as validation and builder generation
    101    *      are concerned.
    102    * </ul>
    103    *
    104    * For example, this could be a valid {@code ProductionComponent} with a builder: <pre><code>

    111    *     MyComponent build();
    112    *     Builder executor(Executor executor);
    113    *     Builder backendModule(BackendModule bm);
    114    *     Builder frontendModule(FrontendModule fm);
