Returning null will cause Guice to skip this method, so that it is not bound to any key. * *

If {@code injectionPoint} represents an {@code abstract} method, {@code null} must be * returned from this method. This scanner can use {@code binder} to bind alternative bindings in * place of the abstract method. */ public abstract Key prepareMethod( Binder binder, Annotation annotation, Key key, InjectionPoint injectionPoint); }
