-Example of adding the Google Cloud Storage NIO Provider to a legacy jar
-=======================================================================
-
-This project shows how to add Google Cloud Storage capabilities to a jar file for a Java 7
-application that uses Java NIO without the need to recompile.
-
-Note that whenever possible, you instead want to recompile the app and use the normal
-dependency mechanism to add a dependency to google-cloud-nio. You can see examples of
-this in the [google-cloud-examples](../../../google-cloud-examples) project,
-[under nio](../../../google-cloud-examples/src/main/java/com/google/cloud/examples/nio).
-
-To run this example:
-
-1. Before running the example, go to the [Google Developers Console][developers-console] to ensure that Google Cloud Storage API is enabled.
-
-2. Log in using gcloud SDK (`gcloud auth login` in command line)
-
-3. Compile the JAR with:
-    ```
-    mvn package -DskipTests -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true -Dmaven.source.skip=true
-    ```
-
-4.    Run the sample with:
-
-[//]: # ({x-version-update-start:google-cloud-nio:current})
-    ```
-    java -cp google-cloud-clients/google-cloud-contrib/google-cloud-nio/target/google-cloud-nio-0.120.1-alpha-SNAPSHOT.jar:google-cloud-clients/google-cloud-contrib/google-cloud-nio-examples/target/google-cloud-nio-examples-0.120.1-alpha-SNAPSHOT.jar com.google.cloud.nio.examples.ListFilesystems
-    ```
-
-    Notice that it lists Google Cloud Storage, which it wouldn't if you ran it without the NIO jar:
-    ```
-    java -cp google-cloud-clients/google-cloud-contrib/google-cloud-nio-examples/target/google-cloud-nio-examples-0.120.1-alpha-SNAPSHOT.jar com.google.cloud.nio.examples.ListFilesystems
-    ```
-[//]: # ({x-version-update-end})
-
-The sample doesn't have anything about Google Cloud Storage in it. It gets that ability from the NIO
-jar that we're adding to the classpath. You can use the NIO "fat shaded" jar for this purpose as it
-also includes the dependencies for google-cloud-nio.
-The underlying mechanism is Java's standard [ServiceLoader](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/ServiceLoader.html)
-facility, the [standard way](http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/io/fsp/filesystemprovider.html) to plug in NIO providers like this one.
-
-If you have access to a project's source code you can also simply add google-cloud-nio as
-a dependency and let Maven pull in the required dependencies (this is what the NIO unit tests do).
-This approach is preferable as the fat jar approach may waste memory on multiple copies of
-dependencies.
