- * To create a stateful Pipe, you should implement this interface and set the `pure`
- * parameter to `false` in the {@link PipeMetadata}.
- *
- * A stateful pipe may produce different output, given the same input. It is
- * likely that a stateful pipe may contain state that should be cleaned up when
- * a binding is destroyed. For example, a subscription to a stream of data may need to
- * be disposed, or an interval may need to be cleared.
- *
- * ### Example ([live demo](http://plnkr.co/edit/i8pm5brO4sPaLxBx56MR?p=preview))
- *
- * In this example, a pipe is created to countdown its input value, updating it every
- * 50ms. Because it maintains an internal interval, it automatically clears
- * the interval when the binding is destroyed or the countdown completes.
- *
- * ```
- * import {Pipe, PipeTransform} from 'angular2/angular2'
- * @Pipe({name: 'countdown', pure: false})
- * class CountDown implements PipeTransform, PipeOnDestroy {
- *   remainingTime:Number;
