Hi everyone,
FYI, as agreed upon long ago, we will be migrating base::Sequenced/ThreadTaskRunnerHandle to static APIs on base::Sequenced/SingleThreadTaskRunner.
SequencedTaskRunnerHandle::Get() => SequencedTaskRunner::GetCurrentDefault().
SequencedTaskRunnerHandle::IsSet() => SequencedTaskRunner::HasCurrentDefault().
(same for ThreadTaskRunnerHandle)
Reasons:
It has long been deemed confusing that ThreadTaskRunnerHandle::Get() returns the default task queue rather than the “current” one on threads with multiplexed task queues. This is intentional and this change helps make this explicit.
A static getter on the appropriate type is more discoverable/intuitive than a separate handle type.
The new API just landed along with an update to the MD documentation. A mass migration will shortly follow and the old API is expected to be gone within a few weeks.
Cheers,
