/**
 * The CookieSyncManager is used to synchronize the browser cookie store
 * between RAM and permanent storage. To get the best performance, browser cookies are
 * saved in RAM. A separate thread saves the cookies between, driven by a timer.
 * <p>
 *
 * To use the CookieSyncManager, the host application has to call the following
 * when the application starts:
 * <p>
 *
 * <pre class="prettyprint">CookieSyncManager.createInstance(context)</pre><p>
 *
 * To set up for sync, the host application has to call<p>
 * <pre class="prettyprint">CookieSyncManager.getInstance().startSync()</pre><p>
 *
 * in Activity.onResume(), and call
 * <p>
 *
 * <pre class="prettyprint">
 * CookieSyncManager.getInstance().stopSync()
 * </pre><p>
 *
 * in Activity.onPause().<p>
 *
 * To get instant sync instead of waiting for the timer to trigger, the host can
 * call
 * <p>
 * <pre class="prettyprint">CookieSyncManager.getInstance().sync()</pre><p>
 *
 * The sync interval is 5 minutes, so you will want to force syncs
 * manually anyway, for instance in {@link
 * WebViewClient#onPageFinished}. Note that even sync() happens
 * asynchronously, so don't do it just as your activity is shutting
 * down.
 *
 * @deprecated The WebView now automatically syncs cookies as necessary.
 *             You no longer need to create or use the CookieSyncManager.
 *             To manually force a sync you can use the CookieManager
 *             method {@link CookieManager#flush} which is a synchronous
 *             replacement for {@link #sync}.
