23 // BrowsingInstance class
24 //
25 // A browsing instance corresponds to the notion of a "unit of related browsing
26 // contexts" in the HTML 5 spec.  Intuitively, it represents a collection of
27 // tabs and frames that can have script connections to each other.  In that
28 // sense, it reflects the user interface, and not the contents of the tabs and
29 // frames.
30 //
31 // We further subdivide a BrowsingInstance into SiteInstances, which represent
32 // the documents within each BrowsingInstance that are from the same site and
33 // thus can have script access to each other.  Different SiteInstances can
34 // safely run in different processes, because their documents cannot access
35 // each other's contents (due to the same origin policy).
36 //
37 // It is important to only have one SiteInstance per site within a given
38 // BrowsingInstance.  This is because any two documents from the same site
39 // might be able to script each other if they are in the same BrowsingInstance.
40 // Thus, they must be rendered in the same process.
41 //
42 // A BrowsingInstance is live as long as any SiteInstance has a reference to
43 // it.  A SiteInstance is live as long as any NavigationEntry or RenderViewHost
44 // have references to it.  Because both classes are RefCounted, they do not
45 // need to be manually deleted.
46 //
47 // BrowsingInstance has no public members, as it is designed to be
48 // visible only from the SiteInstance class.  To get a new
49 // SiteInstance that is part of the same BrowsingInstance, use
50 // SiteInstance::GetRelatedSiteInstance.  Because of this,
51 // BrowsingInstances and SiteInstances are tested together in
52 // site_instance_unittest.cc.
