It can be used across multiple // processes and threads, maintaining cheap statistics counters without // locking. // // The goal is to make it very cheap and easy for developers to add // counters to code, without having to build one-off utilities or mechanisms // to track the counters, and also to allow a single "view" to display // the contents of all counters. // // To achieve this, StatsTable creates a shared memory segment to store // the data for the counters. Upon creation, it has a specific size // which governs the maximum number of counters and concurrent // threads/processes which can use it. // #ifndef BASE_METRICS_STATS_TABLE_H_ #define BASE_METRICS_STATS_TABLE_H_ #include <string> #include "base/base_export.h" #include "base/basictypes.h" #include "base/containers/hash_tables.h" #include "base/memory/shared_memory.h" #include "base/synchronization/lock.h" #include "base/threading/thread_local_storage.h" #include "build/build_config.h" #if defined(OS_POSIX) #include "base/file_descriptor_posix.h" #endif namespace base { class BASE_EXPORT StatsTable { public: // Identifies a StatsTable.
