It provides you with the option of either 35 // handling IPC messages on that background thread or having them dispatched to 36 // your main thread (the thread on which the IPC::ChannelProxy is created). 37 // 38 // The API for an IPC::ChannelProxy is very similar to that of an IPC::Channel. 39 // When you send a message to an IPC::ChannelProxy, the message is routed to 40 // the background thread, where it is then passed to the IPC::Channel's Send 41 // method. This means that you can send a message from your thread and your 42 // message will be sent over the IPC channel when possible instead of being 43 // delayed until your thread returns to its message loop. (Often IPC messages 44 // will queue up on the IPC::Channel when there is a lot of traffic, and the 45 // channel will not get cycles to flush its message queue until the thread, on 46 // which it is running, returns to its message loop.) 47 // 48 // An IPC::ChannelProxy can have a MessageFilter associated with it, which will 49 // be notified of incoming messages on the IPC::Channel's thread. This gives 50 // the consumer of IPC::ChannelProxy the ability to respond to incoming 51 // messages on this background thread instead of on their own thread, which may 52 // be bogged down with other processing. The result can be greatly improved 53 // latency for messages that can be handled on a background thread. 54 // 55 // The consumer of IPC::ChannelProxy is responsible for allocating the Thread 56 // instance where the IPC::Channel will be created and operated. 57 // 58 class IPC_EXPORT ChannelProxy : public Sender, public base::NonThreadSafe { 59 public: 60 // Initializes a channel proxy.
