// Before trying SkOnce, see if SkLazyPtr or SkLazyFnPtr will work for you.
// They're smaller and faster, if slightly less versatile.


// SkOnce.h defines SK_DECLARE_STATIC_ONCE and SkOnce(), which you can use
// together to create a threadsafe way to call a function just once.  E.g.
//
// static void register_my_stuff(GlobalRegistry* registry) {
//     registry->register(...);
// }
// ...
// void EnsureRegistered() {
//     SK_DECLARE_STATIC_ONCE(once);
//     SkOnce(&once, register_my_stuff, GetGlobalRegistry());
// }
//
// No matter how many times you call EnsureRegistered(), register_my_stuff will be called just once.
// OnceTest.cpp also should serve as a few other simple examples.
