      5 // WARNING: Thread local storage is a bit tricky to get right. Please make sure
      6 // that this is really the proper solution for what you're trying to achieve.
      7 // Don't prematurely optimize, most likely you can just use a Lock.
      8 //
      9 // These classes implement a wrapper around ThreadLocalStorage::Slot. On
     10 // construction, they will allocate a TLS slot, and free the TLS slot on
     11 // destruction. No memory management (creation or destruction) is handled. This
     12 // means for uses of ThreadLocalPointer, you must correctly manage the memory
     13 // yourself, these classes will not destroy the pointer for you. There are no
     14 // at-thread-exit actions taken by these classes.
     15 //
     16 // ThreadLocalPointer<Type> wraps a Type*. It performs no creation or
     17 // destruction, so memory management must be handled elsewhere. The first call
     18 // to Get() on a thread will return NULL. You can update the pointer with a call
     19 // to Set().
     20 //
     21 // ThreadLocalBoolean wraps a bool. It will default to false if it has never
     22 // been set otherwise with Set().
     23 //
     24 // Thread Safety: An instance of ThreadLocalStorage is completely thread safe
     25 // once it has been created. If you want to dynamically create an instance, you
     26 // must of course properly deal with safety and race conditions. This means a
     27 // function-level static initializer is generally inappropiate.
     28 //
     29 // In Android, the system TLS is limited.
     30 //
     31 // Example usage:
     32 //   // My class is logically attached to a single thread. We cache a pointer
     33 //   // on the thread it was created on, so we can implement current().
     34 //   MyClass::MyClass() {
     35 //     DCHECK(Singleton<ThreadLocalPointer<MyClass> >::get()->Get() == NULL);
     36 //     Singleton<ThreadLocalPointer<MyClass> >::get()->Set(this);
     37 //   }
     38 //
     39 //   MyClass::~MyClass() {
     40 //     DCHECK(Singleton<ThreadLocalPointer<MyClass> >::get()->Get() != NULL);
     41 //     Singleton<ThreadLocalPointer<MyClass> >::get()->Set(NULL);
     42 //   }
     43 //
     44 //   // Return the current MyClass associated with the calling thread, can be
     45 //   // NULL if there isn't a MyClass associated.
     46 //   MyClass* MyClass::current() {
     47 //     return Singleton<ThreadLocalPointer<MyClass> >::get()->Get();
     48 //   }
