mbgl::Thread will keep a ThreadContext for each running instance
in a thread_local so we don't need to lookup a man in the Environment
every time we need some info about the current thread.
This patch is moving the ::currentlyOn check used on Debug build from
the Environment class to the ThreadContext.
The previous implementation, based on thread-local storage, did not
ensure that the context was destructed before the FileSource run loop.
This resulted in implementations attempting to uv_close handles for a
loop that had already been destroyed.
This change also fixes#1262.
The Thread object gets access via its constructor. No other object
should have access; off-thread objects can't safely do anything with
it except pass it back to the thread.
SharedRequestBase was trying to do two different jobs: be a base class
for Asset/HttpRequest and track internal state for DefaultFileSource.
Now we have RequestBase for the former, and DefaultFileRequest for the
latter.
Implements a Thread<>::invoke interface that only permits calling
member functions with bound arguments.
Also introduce invokeWithResult, which accepts a callback and invokes
it, passing the result, on the invoking thread's RunLoop. This closes
the loop of two evented threads doing message passing.
Thread<T> is a generic thread management object that starts a thread, creates an object T in that thread and calls its .start() function. When the Thread<T> object is destructed (which must happen in the thread that created it), it'll call the object's .stop() function, and wait for thread termination. The .stop() function must somehow get the thread to terminate. Note that object T's constructor/destructor/start()/stop() must be protected/private, and Thread<T> must be declared as a friend class. All public functions may be called from any thread and are exposed through operator->().
RunLoop encapsulates a libuv runloop and has a facility of dispatching function objects to the thread. It can be used either as a worker thread class by itself, or it can be derived from. This commit converts SQLiteCache to derive from RunLoop and removes the custom code used previously for managing the cache thread.
we are now scoping all file requests to an environment object. The FileSource implementation treats
this as an opaque pointer, but allows canceling all Requests that are associated with that pointer.
This is necessary to abort all file requests that originated from a particular Map object. Aborting
a file request is different from canceling a file request: A canceled request doesn't have its
callback called, while an aborted request will have its callback called with an error, indicating
that the environment is going to be shut down.
