199 * MOZ_DELETE, specified immediately prior to the ';' terminating an undefined-
200 * method declaration, attempts to delete that method from the corresponding
201 * class. An attempt to use the method will always produce an error *at compile
202 * time* (instead of sometimes as late as link time) when this macro can be
203 * implemented. For example, you can use MOZ_DELETE to produce classes with no
204 * implicit copy constructor or assignment operator:
206 * struct NonCopyable
208 * private:
209 * NonCopyable(const NonCopyable& other) MOZ_DELETE;
210 * void operator=(const NonCopyable& other) MOZ_DELETE;
211 * };
213 * If MOZ_DELETE can't be implemented for the current compiler, use of the
214 * annotated method will still cause an error, but the error might occur at link
215 * time in some cases rather than at compile time.
217 * MOZ_DELETE relies on C++11 functionality not universally implemented. As a
218 * backstop, method declarations using MOZ_DELETE should be private.

227 * MOZ_OVERRIDE explicitly indicates that a virtual member function in a class
228 * overrides a member function of a base class, rather than potentially being a
229 * new member function. MOZ_OVERRIDE should be placed immediately before the
230 * ';' terminating the member function's declaration, or before '= 0;' if the
231 * member function is pure. If the member function is defined in the class
232 * definition, it should appear before the opening brace of the function body.
234 * class Base
236 * public:
237 * virtual void f() = 0;

248 * };
249 * class Derived3 : public Base
251 * public:
252 * virtual void f() MOZ_OVERRIDE { }
253 * };
255 * In compilers supporting C++11 override controls, MOZ_OVERRIDE *requires* that
256 * the function marked with it override a member function of a base class: it
257 * is a compile error if it does not. Otherwise MOZ_OVERRIDE does not affect
258 * semantics and merely documents the override relationship to the reader (but
259 * of course must still be used correctly to not break C++11 compilers).

268 * MOZ_FINAL indicates that some functionality cannot be overridden through
269 * inheritance. It can be used to annotate either classes/structs or virtual
270 * member functions.
272 * To annotate a class/struct with MOZ_FINAL, place MOZ_FINAL immediately after
273 * the name of the class, before the list of classes from which it derives (if
274 * any) and before its opening brace. MOZ_FINAL must not be used to annotate
275 * unnamed classes or structs. (With some compilers, and with C++11 proper, the
276 * underlying expansion is ambiguous with specifying a class name.)
278 * class Base MOZ_FINAL
280 * public:
281 * Base();
282 * ~Base();
283 * virtual void f() { }
284 * };
285 * // This will be an error in some compilers:
286 * class Derived : public Base
288 * public:
289 * ~Derived() { }
290 * };
292 * One particularly common reason to specify MOZ_FINAL upon a class is to tell
293 * the compiler that it's not dangerous for it to have a non-virtual destructor
294 * yet have one or more virtual functions, silencing the warning it might emit
295 * in this case. Suppose Base above weren't annotated with MOZ_FINAL. Because
296 * ~Base() is non-virtual, an attempt to delete a Derived* through a Base*
297 * wouldn't call ~Derived(), so any cleanup ~Derived() might do wouldn't happen.
298 * (Formally C++ says behavior is undefined, but compilers will likely just call
299 * ~Base() and not ~Derived().) Specifying MOZ_FINAL tells the compiler that
300 * it's safe for the destructor to be non-virtual.
302 * In compilers implementing final controls, it is an error to inherit from a
303 * class annotated with MOZ_FINAL. In other compilers it serves only as
304 * documentation.
306 * To annotate a virtual member function with MOZ_FINAL, place MOZ_FINAL
307 * immediately before the ';' terminating the member function's declaration, or
308 * before '= 0;' if the member function is pure. If the member function is
309 * defined in the class definition, it should appear before the opening brace of
310 * the function body. (This placement is identical to that for MOZ_OVERRIDE.
311 * If both are used, they should appear in the order 'MOZ_FINAL MOZ_OVERRIDE'
312 * for consistency.)

324 * };
326 * In compilers implementing final controls, it is an error for a derived class
327 * to override a method annotated with MOZ_FINAL. In other compilers it serves
328 * only as documentation.
