// This header file defines the `absl::Flag<T>` type for holding command-line
// flag data, and abstractions to create, get and set such flag data.
//
// It is important to note that this type is **unspecified** (an implementation
// detail) and you do not construct or manipulate actual `absl::Flag<T>`
// instances. Instead, you define and declare flags using the
// `ABSL_FLAG()` and `ABSL_DECLARE_FLAG()` macros, and get and set flag values
// using the `absl::GetFlag()` and `absl::SetFlag()` functions.

// Flag
//
// An `absl::Flag` holds a command-line flag value, providing a runtime
// parameter to a binary. Such flags should be defined in the global namespace
// and (preferably) in the module containing the binary's `main()` function.
//
// You should not construct and cannot use the `absl::Flag` type directly;
// instead, you should declare flags using the `ABSL_DECLARE_FLAG()` macro
// within a header file, and define your flag using `ABSL_FLAG()` within your
// header's associated `.cc` file. Such flags will be named `FLAGS_name`.
//
// Example:
//
//    .h file
//
//      // Declares usage of a flag named "FLAGS_count"
//      ABSL_DECLARE_FLAG(int, count);
//
//    .cc file
//
//      // Defines a flag named "FLAGS_count" with a default `int` value of 0.
//      ABSL_FLAG(int, count, 0, "Count of items to process");
//
// No public methods of `absl::Flag<T>` are part of the Abseil Flags API.

// MSVC debug builds do not implement initialization with constexpr constructors
// correctly. To work around this we add a level of indirection, so that the
// class `absl::Flag` contains an `internal::Flag*` (instead of being an alias
// to that class) and dynamically allocates an instance when necessary. We also
// forward all calls to internal::Flag methods via trampoline methods. In this
// setup the `absl::Flag` class does not have constructor and virtual methods,
// all the data members are public and thus MSVC is able to initialize it at
// link time. To deal with multiple threads accessing the flag for the first
// time concurrently we use an atomic boolean indicating if flag object is
// initialized. We also employ the double-checked locking pattern where the
// second level of protection is a global Mutex, so if two threads attempt to
// construct the flag concurrently only one wins.
// This solution is based on a recomendation here:

// ABSL_FLAG()
//
// This macro defines an `absl::Flag<T>` instance of a specified type `T`:
//
//   ABSL_FLAG(T, name, default_value, help);
//
// where:
//
//   * `T` is a supported flag type (see the list of types in `marshalling.h`),
//   * `name` designates the name of the flag (as a global variable
//     `FLAGS_name`),
//   * `default_value` is an expression holding the default value for this flag
//     (which must be implicitly convertible to `T`),
//   * `help` is the help text, which can also be an expression.
//
// This macro expands to a flag named 'FLAGS_name' of type 'T':
//
//   absl::Flag<T> FLAGS_name = ...;
//
// Note that all such instances are created as global variables.
//
// For `ABSL_FLAG()` values that you wish to expose to other translation units,
// it is recommended to define those flags within the `.cc` file associated with
// the header where the flag is declared.
//
// Note: do not construct objects of type `absl::Flag<T>` directly. Only use the
// `ABSL_FLAG()` macro for such construction.
#define ABSL_FLAG(Type, name, default_value, help) \
  ABSL_FLAG_IMPL(Type, name, default_value, help)

// ABSL_FLAG().OnUpdate()
//
// Defines a flag of type `T` with a callback attached:
//
//   ABSL_FLAG(T, name, default_value, help).OnUpdate(callback);
//
// After any setting of the flag value, the callback will be called at least
// once. A rapid sequence of changes may be merged together into the same
// callback. No concurrent calls to the callback will be made for the same
// flag. Callbacks are allowed to read the current value of the flag but must
// not mutate that flag.
//
// The update mechanism guarantees "eventual consistency"; if the callback
// derives an auxiliary data structure from the flag value, it is guaranteed
// that eventually the flag value and the derived data structure will be
// consistent.
//
// Note: ABSL_FLAG.OnUpdate() does not have a public definition. Hence, this
// comment serves as its API documentation.
