On destruction, CancelableTaskTracker will cancel all // tracked tasks. // // Each cancelable task can be associated with a reply (also a Closure). After // the task is run on the TaskRunner, |reply| will be posted back to // originating TaskRunner. // // NOTE: // // CancelableCallback (base/cancelable_callback.h) and WeakPtr binding are // preferred solutions for canceling a task. However, they don't support // cancelation from another thread. This is sometimes a performance critical // requirement. E.g. We need to cancel database lookup task on DB thread when // user changes inputed text. If it is performance critical to do a best effort // cancelation of a task, then CancelableTaskTracker is appropriate, // otherwise use one of the other mechanisms. // // THREAD-SAFETY: // // 1. CancelableTaskTracker objects are not thread safe. They must // be created, used, and destroyed on the originating thread that posts the // task. It's safe to destroy a CancelableTaskTracker while there // are outstanding tasks. This is commonly used to cancel all outstanding // tasks. // // 2. Both task and reply are deleted on the originating thread. // // 3. IsCanceledCallback is thread safe and can be run or deleted on any // thread. #ifndef BASE_TASK_CANCELABLE_TASK_TRACKER_H_ #define BASE_TASK_CANCELABLE_TASK_TRACKER_H_ #include "base/base_export.h" #include "base/basictypes.h" #include "base/callback.h" #include "base/containers/hash_tables.h" #include "base/memory/weak_ptr.h" #include "base/task_runner_util.h" #include "base/threading/thread_checker.h" namespace tracked_objects { class Location; } // namespace tracked_objects namespace base { class CancellationFlag; class TaskRunner; class BASE_EXPORT CancelableTaskTracker { public: // All values except kBadTaskId are valid. typedef int64 TaskId; static const TaskId kBadTaskId; typedef base::Callback<bool()> IsCanceledCallback; CancelableTaskTracker(); // Cancels all tracked tasks. ~CancelableTaskTracker(); TaskId PostTask(base::TaskRunner* task_runner, const tracked_objects::Location& from_here, const base::Closure& task); TaskId PostTaskAndReply(base::TaskRunner* task_runner, const tracked_objects::Location& from_here, const base::Closure& task, const base::Closure& reply); template <typename TaskReturnType, typename ReplyArgType> TaskId PostTaskAndReplyWithResult( base::TaskRunner* task_runner, const tracked_objects::Location& from_here, const base::Callback<TaskReturnType(void)>& task, const base::Callback<void(ReplyArgType)>& reply) { TaskReturnType* result = new TaskReturnType(); return PostTaskAndReply( task_runner, from_here, base::Bind(&base::internal::ReturnAsParamAdapter<TaskReturnType>, task, base::Unretained(result)), base::Bind(&base::internal::ReplyAdapter<TaskReturnType, ReplyArgType>, reply, base::Owned(result))); } // Creates a tracked TaskId and an associated IsCanceledCallback.
