40 // A MessageLoop is used to process events for a particular thread.  There is
41 // at most one MessageLoop instance per thread.
42 //
43 // Events include at a minimum Task instances submitted to the MessageLoop's
44 // TaskRunner. Depending on the type of message pump used by the MessageLoop
45 // other events such as UI messages may be processed.  On Windows APC calls (as
46 // time permits) and signals sent to a registered set of HANDLEs may also be
47 // processed.
48 //
49 // The MessageLoop's API should only be used directly by its owner (and users
50 // which the owner opts to share a MessageLoop* with). Other ways to access
51 // subsets of the MessageLoop API:
52 //   - base::RunLoop : Drive the MessageLoop from the thread it's bound to.
53 //   - base::Thread/SequencedTaskRunnerHandle : Post back to the MessageLoop
54 //     from a task running on it.
55 //   - SequenceLocalStorageSlot : Bind external state to this MessageLoop.
56 //   - base::MessageLoopCurrent : Access statically exposed APIs of this
57 //     MessageLoop.
58 //   - Embedders may provide their own static accessors to post tasks on
59 //     specific loops (e.g. content::BrowserThreads).
60 //
61 // NOTE: Unless otherwise specified, a MessageLoop's methods may only be called
62 // on the thread where the MessageLoop's Run method executes.
63 //
64 // NOTE: MessageLoop has task reentrancy protection.  This means that if a
65 // task is being processed, a second task cannot start until the first task is
66 // finished.  Reentrancy can happen when processing a task, and an inner
67 // message pump is created.  That inner pump then processes native messages
68 // which could implicitly start an inner task.  Inner message pumps are created
69 // with dialogs (DialogBox), common dialogs (GetOpenFileName), OLE functions
70 // (DoDragDrop), printer functions (StartDoc) and *many* others.
71 //
72 // Sample workaround when inner task processing is needed:
73 //   HRESULT hr;
74 //   {
75 //     MessageLoopCurrent::ScopedNestableTaskAllower allow;
76 //     hr = DoDragDrop(...); // Implicitly runs a modal message loop.
77 //   }
78 //   // Process |hr| (the result returned by DoDragDrop()).
79 //
80 // Please be SURE your task is reentrant (nestable) and all global variables
81 // are stable and accessible before calling SetNestableTasksAllowed(true).
82 //
