The annotations can also help program analysis tools to identify // potential thread safety issues. // // These annotations are implemented using compiler attributes. Using the macros // defined here instead of raw attributes allow for portability and future // compatibility. // // When referring to mutexes in the arguments of the attributes, you should // use variable names or more complex expressions (e.g. my_object->mutex_) // that evaluate to a concrete mutex object whenever possible. If the mutex // you want to refer to is not in scope, you may use a member pointer // (e.g. &MyClass::mutex_) to refer to a mutex in some (unknown) object. #ifndef ABSL_BASE_THREAD_ANNOTATIONS_H_ #define ABSL_BASE_THREAD_ANNOTATIONS_H_ #include "absl/base/attributes.h" #include "absl/base/config.h" // ABSL_GUARDED_BY() // // Documents if a shared field or global variable needs to be protected by a // mutex.
