// SamplingCounter:
//
// This class is suitable and (hopefully!) convenient for cases where a counter is
// required within the scope of a single function. It can be instantiated as a
// static variable since it contains a constructor but not a destructor (static
// variables in WebKit cannot have destructors).
//
// For example:
//
// void someFunction()
// {
//     static SamplingCounter countMe("This is my counter. There are many like it, but this one is mine.");
//     countMe.count();
//     // ...
// }
//
class SamplingCounter : public AbstractSamplingCounter {
public:
    SamplingCounter(const char* name) { init(name); }
};

// GlobalSamplingCounter:
//
// This class is suitable for use where a counter is to be declared globally,
// since it contains neither a constructor nor destructor. Instead, ensure
// that 'name()' is called to provide the counter with a name (and also to
// allow it to be printed out on exit).
//
// GlobalSamplingCounter globalCounter;
//
// void firstFunction()
// {
//     // Put this within a function that is definitely called!
//     // (Or alternatively alongside all calls to 'count()').
//     globalCounter.name("I Name You Destroyer.");
//     globalCounter.count();
//     // ...
// }
//
// void secondFunction()
// {
//     globalCounter.count();
//     // ...
// }
//
class GlobalSamplingCounter : public AbstractSamplingCounter {
public:
    void name(const char* name)
    {
        // Global objects should be mapped in zero filled memory, so this should
        // be a safe (albeit not necessarily threadsafe) check for 'first call'.
        if (!m_next)

// DeletableSamplingCounter:
//
// The above classes (SamplingCounter, GlobalSamplingCounter), are intended for
// use within a global or static scope, and as such cannot have a destructor.
// This means there is no convenient way for them to remove themselves from the
// static list of counters, and should an instance of either class be freed
// before 'dump()' has walked over the list it will potentially walk over an
// invalid pointer.
//
// This class is intended for use where the counter may possibly be deleted before
// the program exits. Should this occur, the counter will print it's value to
// stderr, and remove itself from the static list. Example:
//
// DeletableSamplingCounter* counter = new DeletableSamplingCounter("The Counter With No Name");
// counter->count();
// delete counter;
//
