+ * <p>To extend this class, you must declare the service in your manifest file with
+ * the {@link android.Manifest.permission#BIND_TRUST_AGENT_SERVICE} permission
+ * and include an intent filter with the {@link #SERVICE_INTERFACE} action. For example:</p>
+ * <pre>

+ *          android:value="&#64;xml/trust_agent" />
+ * &lt;/service></pre>
+ *
+ * <p>The associated meta-data file can specify an activity that is accessible through Settings
+ * and should allow configuring the trust agent, as defined in
+ * {@link android.R.styleable#TrustAgent}. For example:</p>
+ *
+ * <pre>
+ * &lt;trust_agent xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
