// In general, objects with static storage duration (such as global variables)
// can trigger tricky object lifetime situations. Attempting to access them
// from the constructors or destructors of other global objects can result in
// undefined behavior, unless their constructors and destructors are designed
// with this issue in mind.
//
// The normal way to deal with this issue in C++11 is to use constant
// initialization and trivial destructors.
//
// Constant initialization is guaranteed to occur before any other code
// executes. Constructors that are declared 'constexpr' are eligible for
// constant initialization. You can annotate a variable declaration with the
// ABSL_CONST_INIT macro to express this intent. For compilers that support
// it, this annotation will cause a compilation error for declarations that
// aren't subject to constant initialization (perhaps because a runtime value
// was passed as a constructor argument).
//
// On program shutdown, lifetime issues can be avoided on global objects by
// ensuring that they contain trivial destructors. A class has a trivial
// destructor unless it has a user-defined destructor, a virtual method or base
// class, or a data member or base class with a non-trivial destructor of its
// own. Objects with static storage duration and a trivial destructor are not
// cleaned up on program shutdown, and are thus safe to access from other code
// running during shutdown.
//
// For a few core Abseil classes, we make a best effort to allow for safe global
// instances, even though these classes have non-trivial destructors. These
// objects can be created with the absl::kConstInit tag. For example:
// ABSL_CONST_INIT absl::Mutex global_mutex(absl::kConstInit);
//
// The line above declares a global variable of type absl::Mutex which can be
// accessed at any point during startup or shutdown. global_mutex's destructor
// will still run, but will not invalidate the object. Note that C++ specifies
// that accessing an object after its destructor has run results in undefined
// behavior, but this pattern works on the toolchains we support.
//
// The absl::kConstInit tag should only be used to define objects with static
// or thread_local storage duration.
