65 // MessagePumpForUI extends MessagePumpWin with methods that are particular to a
66 // MessageLoop instantiated with TYPE_UI.
68 // MessagePumpForUI implements a "traditional" Windows message pump. It contains
69 // a nearly infinite loop that peeks out messages, and then dispatches them.
70 // Intermixed with those peeks are callouts to DoWork for pending tasks, and
71 // DoDelayedWork for pending timers. When there are no events to be serviced,
72 // this pump goes into a wait state. In most cases, this message pump handles
73 // all processing.
75 // However, when a task, or windows event, invokes on the stack a native dialog
76 // box or such, that window typically provides a bare bones (native?) message
77 // pump. That bare-bones message pump generally supports little more than a
78 // peek of the Windows message queue, followed by a dispatch of the peeked
79 // message. MessageLoop extends that bare-bones message pump to also service
80 // Tasks, at the cost of some complexity.
82 // The basic structure of the extension (refered to as a sub-pump) is that a
83 // special message, kMsgHaveWork, is repeatedly injected into the Windows
84 // Message queue. Each time the kMsgHaveWork message is peeked, checks are
85 // made for an extended set of events, including the availability of Tasks to
86 // run.
88 // After running a task, the special message kMsgHaveWork is again posted to
89 // the Windows Message queue, ensuring a future time slice for processing a
90 // future event. To prevent flooding the Windows Message queue, care is taken
91 // to be sure that at most one kMsgHaveWork message is EVER pending in the
92 // Window's Message queue.
94 // There are a few additional complexities in this system where, when there are
95 // no Tasks to run, this otherwise infinite stream of messages which drives the
96 // sub-pump is halted. The pump is automatically re-started when Tasks are
97 // queued.
99 // A second complexity is that the presence of this stream of posted tasks may
100 // prevent a bare-bones message pump from ever peeking a WM_PAINT or WM_TIMER.
101 // Such paint and timer events always give priority to a posted message, such as
102 // kMsgHaveWork messages. As a result, care is taken to do some peeking in
103 // between the posting of each kMsgHaveWork message (i.e., after kMsgHaveWork
104 // is peeked, and before a replacement kMsgHaveWork is posted).
106 // NOTE: Although it may seem odd that messages are used to start and stop this
107 // flow (as opposed to signaling objects, etc.), it should be understood that
108 // the native message pump will *only* respond to messages. As a result, it is
109 // an excellent choice. It is also helpful that the starter messages that are
110 // placed in the queue when new task arrive also awakens DoRunLoop.
