/**
|
|
* A serial event target is an event dispatching interface like
|
|
* nsIEventTarget. Runnables dispatched to an nsISerialEventTarget are required
|
|
* to execute serially. That is, two different runnables dispatched to the
|
|
* target should never be allowed to execute simultaneously. One exception to
|
|
* this rule is nested event loops. If a runnable spins a nested event loop,
|
|
* causing another runnable dispatched to the target to run, the target may
|
|
* still be considered "serial".
|
|
*
|
|
* Examples:
|
|
* - nsIThread is a serial event target.
|
|
* - Thread pools are not serial event targets.
|
|
* - However, one can "convert" a thread pool into an nsISerialEventTarget
|
|
* by putting a TaskQueue in front of it.
