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