25  *
26  * <p>Implementations can be automatically discovered by gRPC via Java's SPI mechanism. For
27  * automatic discovery, the implementation must have a zero-argument constructor and include
28  * a resource named {@code META-INF/services/io.grpc.LoadBalancerProvider} in their JAR. The
29  * file's contents should be the implementation's class name. Implementations that need arguments in
30  * their constructor can be manually registered by {@link LoadBalancerRegistry#register}.
31  *
32  * <p>Implementations <em>should not</em> throw. If they do, it may interrupt class loading. If
33  * exceptions may reasonably occur for implementation-specific reasons, implementations should
34  * generally handle the exception gracefully and return {@code false} from {@link #isAvailable()}.
