21 ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
23 // OVERVIEW:
25 // A thread-safe container for a list of observers.
26 // This is similar to the observer_list (see observer_list.h), but it
27 // is more robust for multi-threaded situations.
29 // The following use cases are supported:
30 // * Observers can register for notifications from any thread.
31 // Callbacks to the observer will occur on the same thread where
32 // the observer initially called AddObserver() from.
33 // * Any thread may trigger a notification via Notify().
34 // * Observers can remove themselves from the observer list inside
35 // of a callback.
36 // * If one thread is notifying observers concurrently with an observer
37 // removing itself from the observer list, the notifications will
38 // be silently dropped.
40 // The drawback of the threadsafe observer list is that notifications
41 // are not as real-time as the non-threadsafe version of this class.
42 // Notifications will always be done via PostTask() to another thread,
43 // whereas with the non-thread-safe observer_list, notifications happen
44 // synchronously and immediately.
46 // IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
47 // The ObserverListThreadSafe maintains an ObserverList for each thread
48 // which uses the ThreadSafeObserver. When Notifying the observers,
49 // we simply call PostTask to each registered thread, and then each thread
50 // will notify its regular ObserverList.
