Annotation Type ExperimentalApi

@Retention(value=CLASS)
 @Target(value={ANNOTATION_TYPE,CONSTRUCTOR,FIELD,METHOD,PACKAGE,TYPE})
 @Documented
public @interface ExperimentalApi

Indicates a public API that can change at any time, and has no guarantee of API stability and backward-compatibility.

Usage guidelines:

1. This annotation is used only on public API. Internal interfaces should not use it.
2. After gRPC has gained API stability, this annotation can only be added to new API. Adding it to an existing API is considered API-breaking.
3. Removing this annotation from an API gives it stable status.

Note: This annotation is intended only for gRPC library code. Users should not attach this annotation to their own code.

See: grpc-java-api-checker, an Error Prone plugin to automatically check for usages of this API.
