26  * Denotes that the annotated field should not be optimized away when

28  * on write-only members that could otherwise be removed except for downstream
29  * weak references that might rely on keep-alive semantics for that field.

31  * <pre><code>
32  *  &#64;KeepForWeakReference
33  *  private final Runnable mFooCallback = this::onFoo;
34  *  ....
35  *  public void registerFooCallbacks(WeakCallbackRegistry registry) {
36  *      registry.register(mFooCallback);
37  *  }
