+// WARNING: Thread local storage is a bit tricky to get right. Please make
+// sure that this is really the proper solution for what you're trying to
+// achieve. Don't prematurely optimize, most likely you can just use a Lock.
+//
+// These classes implement a warpper around the platform's TLS storage
+// mechanism. On construction, they will allocate a TLS slot, and free the
+// TLS slot on destruction. No memory management (creation or destruction) is
+// handled. This means for uses of ThreadLocalPointer, you must correctly
+// manage the memory yourself, these classes will not destroy the pointer for
+// you. There are no at-thread-exit actions taken by these classes.
+//
+// ThreadLocalPointer<Type> wraps a Type*. It performs no creation or
+// destruction, so memory management must be handled elsewhere. The first call
+// to Get() on a thread will return NULL. You can update the pointer with a
+// call to Set().
+//
+// ThreadLocalBoolean wraps a bool. It will default to false if it has never
+// been set otherwise with Set().
+//
+// Thread Safety: An instance of ThreadLocalStorage is completely thread safe
+// once it has been created. If you want to dynamically create an instance,
+// you must of course properly deal with safety and race conditions. This
+// means a function-level static initializer is generally inappropiate.
+//
+// Example usage:
+// // My class is logically attached to a single thread. We cache a pointer
+// // on the thread it was created on, so we can implement current().
+// MyClass::MyClass() {
+// DCHECK(Singleton<ThreadLocalPointer<MyClass> >::get()->Get() == NULL);
+// Singleton<ThreadLocalPointer<MyClass> >::get()->Set(this);
+// }
+//
+// MyClass::~MyClass() {
+// DCHECK(Singleton<ThreadLocalPointer<MyClass> >::get()->Get() != NULL);
+// Singleton<ThreadLocalPointer<MyClass> >::get()->Set(NULL);
+// }
+//
+// // Return the current MyClass associated with the calling thread, can be
+// // NULL if there isn't a MyClass associated.
+// MyClass* MyClass::current() {
+// return Singleton<ThreadLocalPointer<MyClass> >::get()->Get();
+// }
