// OVERVIEW:
//
// A container for a list of callbacks. Provides callers the ability to manually
// or automatically unregister callbacks at any time, including during callback
// notification.
//
// TYPICAL USAGE:
//
// class MyWidget {
//  public:
//   using CallbackList = base::RepeatingCallbackList<void(const Foo&)>;
//
//   // Registers |cb| to be called whenever NotifyFoo() is executed.
//   CallbackListSubscription RegisterCallback(CallbackList::CallbackType cb) {
//     return callback_list_.Add(std::move(cb));
//   }
//
//  private:
//   // Calls all registered callbacks, with |foo| as the supplied arg.
//   void NotifyFoo(const Foo& foo) {
//     callback_list_.Notify(foo);
//   }
//
//   CallbackList callback_list_;
// };
//
//
// class MyWidgetListener {
//  private:
//   void OnFoo(const Foo& foo) {
//     // Called whenever MyWidget::NotifyFoo() is executed, unless
//     // |foo_subscription_| has been destroyed.
//   }
//
//   // Automatically deregisters the callback when deleted (e.g. in
//   // ~MyWidgetListener()).  Unretained(this) is safe here since the
//   // ScopedClosureRunner does not outlive |this|.
//   CallbackListSubscription foo_subscription_ =
//       MyWidget::Get()->RegisterCallback(
//           base::BindRepeating(&MyWidgetListener::OnFoo,
//                               base::Unretained(this)));
// };
//
// UNSUPPORTED:
//
// * Destroying the CallbackList during callback notification.
//
// This is possible to support, but not currently necessary.

// consumers can avoid callbacks on dead objects by ensuring the subscription
// returned by CallbackListBase::Add() does not outlive the bound object in the
// callback. A typical way to do this is to bind a callback to a member function
// on `this` and store the returned subscription as a member variable.
