     28  * Denotes that the annotated method can be called from any thread (e.g. it is
     29  * "thread safe".) If the annotated element is a class, then all methods in the
     30  * class can be called from any thread.
     31  * <p>
     32  * The main purpose of this method is to indicate that you believe a method can
     33  * be called from any thread; static tools can then check that nothing you call
     34  * from within this method or class have more strict threading requirements.
     35  * <p>
     36  * Example:
     37  *
     38  * <pre>
     39  * <code>
     40  *  &#64;AnyThread
     41  *  public void deliverResult(D data) { ... }
     42  * </code>
     43  * </pre>
     44  *
     45  * @memberDoc This method is safe to call from any thread.
