- * Helper class that helps you use IBinder objects as reference counted

+ * A TokenWatcher watches a collection of {@link IBinder}s. IBinders are added
+ * to the collection by calling {@link #acquire}, and removed by calling {@link
+ * #release}. IBinders are also implicitly removed when they become weakly
+ * reachable. Each IBinder may be added at most once.
*
+ * The {@link #acquired} method is invoked by posting to the specified handler
+ * whenever the size of the watched collection becomes nonzero. The {@link
+ * #released} method is invoked on the specified handler whenever the size of
+ * the watched collection becomes zero.
