    1.34 + * The interface for a javac plug-in.
    1.35 + *
    1.36 + * <p>The javac plug-in mechanism allows a user to specify one or more plug-ins
    1.37 + * on the javac command line, to be started soon after the compilation
    1.38 + * has begun. Plug-ins are identified by a user-friendly name. Each plug-in that
    1.39 + * is started will be passed an array of strings, which may be used to
    1.40 + * provide the plug-in with values for any desired options or other arguments.
    1.41 + *
    1.42 + * <p>Plug-ins are located via a {@link ServiceLoader},
    1.43 + * using the same class path as annotation processors (i.e.
    1.44 + * {@link StandardLocation#PROCESSOR_PATH PROCESSOR_PATH} or
    1.45 + * {@code -processorpath}).
    1.46 + *
    1.47 + * <p>It is expected that a typical plug-in will simply register a
    1.48 + * {@link TaskListener} to be informed of events during the execution
    1.49 + * of the compilation, and that the rest of the work will be done
    1.50 + * by the task listener.
    1.51 + *
