      5 // This defines helpful methods for dealing with Callbacks.  Because Callbacks
      6 // are implemented using templates, with a class per callback signature, adding
      7 // methods to Callback<> itself is unattractive (lots of extra code gets
      8 // generated).  Instead, consider adding methods here.
      9 //
     10 // ResetAndReturn(&cb) is like cb.Reset() but allows executing a callback (via a
     11 // copy) after the original callback is Reset().  This can be handy if Run()
     12 // reads/writes the variable holding the Callback.
