/**
* Annotates a program element (class, method, package, etc) which is internal to gRPC, not part of
* the public API, and should not be used by users of gRPC.
*
* However, if you want to implement an alternative transport you may use the internal parts.
* Please consult the gRPC team first, because internal APIs don't have the same API stability
* guarantee as the public APIs do.
*
*
Note: This annotation is intended only for gRPC library code. Users should not attach this
* annotation to their own code.
