public class GoogleAccountCredential implements HttpRequestInitializer

Beta
Manages authorization and account selection for Google accounts.

When fetching a token, any thrown GoogleAuthException would be wrapped:

• GooglePlayServicesAvailabilityException would be wrapped inside of GooglePlayServicesAvailabilityIOException
• UserRecoverableAuthException would be wrapped inside of UserRecoverableAuthIOException
• GoogleAuthException when be wrapped inside of GoogleAuthIOException

Upgrade warning: in prior version 1.14 exponential back-off was enabled by default when I/O exception was thrown inside #getToken, but starting with version 1.15 you need to call #setBackOff with ExponentialBackOff to enable it.
