   8 // This code exists to shuffle file descriptors, which is commonly needed when
   9 // forking subprocesses. The naive approach (just call dup2 to set up the
  10 // desired descriptors) is very simple, but wrong: it won't handle edge cases
  11 // (like mapping 0 -> 1, 1 -> 0) correctly.
  12 //
  13 // In order to unittest this code, it's broken into the abstract action (an
  14 // injective multimap) and the concrete code for dealing with file descriptors.
  15 // Users should use the code like this:
  16 //   base::InjectiveMultimap file_descriptor_map;
  17 //   file_descriptor_map.push_back(base::InjectionArc(devnull, 0, true));
  18 //   file_descriptor_map.push_back(base::InjectionArc(devnull, 2, true));
  19 //   file_descriptor_map.push_back(base::InjectionArc(pipe[1], 1, true));
  20 //   base::ShuffleFileDescriptors(file_descriptor_map);
  21 //
  22 // and trust the the Right Thing will get done.
