Annotates methods of a Module to add items to a Multibinder. The method's return type and binding annotation determines what Set this will contribute to. For example,
@ProvidesIntoSet @Named("urls") String provideFooUrl(FooManager fm) { returm fm.getUrl(); } @ProvidesIntoSet @Named("urls") String provideBarUrl(BarManager bm) { return bm.getUrl(); } 
will add two items to the @Named("urls") Set<String> set. The items are bound as providers and will be evaluated at injection time.
