// TODO(b/157082874): Allow restricting entire classes.
/**
* Restrict this method to callsites with a allowlist annotation.
*
* Callers that are not allowlisted will cause a configurable compiler diagnostic. Allowlisting
* can either allow the call outright, or make the compiler emit a warning when the API is called.
* Paths matching a regular expression, e.g. unit tests, can also be excluded.
*
*
The following example shows a hypothetical, potentially unsafe {@code Foo.bar} method. It is
* marked with the {@code @RestrictedApi} annotations such that callers annotated with
* {@code @LegacyUnsafeFooBar} raise a warning, whereas the {@code @ReviewedFooBar} annotation
* silently allows the call.
*
*
The {@code @LegacyUnsafeFooBar} annotation can be used to allow existing call sites until they
* are refactored, while prohibiting new call-sites. Call-sites determined to be acceptable, for
* example through code review, could be marked {@code @ReviewedFooBar}.
*
*
{@code
* public @interface LegacyUnsafeFooBar{}
*
* public @interface ReviewedFooBar{
* public string reviewer();
* public string comments();
* }
*
* public class Foo {
* @RestrictedApi(
* explanation="You could shoot yourself in the foot with Foo.bar if you aren't careful",
* link="http://edsger.dijkstra/foo_bar_consider_harmful.html",
* allowedOnPath="testsuite/.*", // Unsafe behavior in tests is ok.
* allowlistAnnotations = {ReviewedFooBar.class},
* allowlistWithWarningAnnotations = {LegacyUnsafeFooBar.class})
* public void bar() {
* if (complicatedCondition) {
* shoot_your_foot();
* } else {
* solve_your_problem();
* }
* }
* boolean complicatedCondition = true;
*
* @ReviewedFooBar(
* reviewer="bangert",
* comments="Makes sure complicatedCondition isn't true, so bar is safe!"
* )
* public void safeBar() {
* if (!complicatedCondition) {
* bar();
* }
* }
*
* @LegacyUnsafeFooBar
* public void someOldCode() {
* // ...
* bar()
