The choice between having a // ThreadChecker member and inheriting from base::NonThreadSafe should be based // on whether: // - Derived classes need to know the thread they belong to, as opposed to // having that functionality fully encapsulated in the base class. // - Derived classes should be able to reassign the base class to another // thread, via DetachFromThread. // // If neither of these are true, then having a ThreadChecker member and calling // CalledOnValidThread is the preferable solution. // // Example: // class MyClass { // public: // void Foo() { // DCHECK(thread_checker_.CalledOnValidThread()); // ... (do stuff) ... // } // // private: // ThreadChecker thread_checker_; // } // // Note that, when enabled, CalledOnValidThread() returns false when called from // tasks posted to SingleThreadTaskRunners bound to different sequences, even if // the tasks happen to run on the same thread (e.g. two independent TaskRunners // with ExecutionMode::SINGLE_THREADED on the TaskScheduler that happen to share // a thread). // // In Release mode, CalledOnValidThread will always return true. #if DCHECK_IS_ON() class ThreadChecker : public ThreadCheckerImpl { }; #else class ThreadChecker : public ThreadCheckerDoNothing { }; #endif // DCHECK_IS_ON() } // namespace base #endif // BASE_THREADING_THREAD_CHECKER_H_
