// A SingleThreadTaskRunner is a SequencedTaskRunner with one more
14
// guarantee; namely, that all tasks are run on a single dedicated
15
// thread. Most use cases require only a SequencedTaskRunner, unless
16
// there is a specific need to run tasks on only a single thread.
18
// SingleThreadTaskRunner implementations might:
19
// - Post tasks to an existing thread's MessageLoop (see MessageLoopProxy).
20
// - Create their own worker thread and MessageLoop to post tasks to.
21
// - Add tasks to a FIFO and signal to a non-MessageLoop thread for them to
22
// be processed. This allows TaskRunner-oriented code run on threads
23
// running other kinds of message loop, e.g. Jingle threads.
