+/**
+ * @file classic_callback.h
+ * @author Nat Goodspeed
+ * @date 2016-06-21
+ * @brief ClassicCallback and HeapClassicCallback
+ *
+ * This header file addresses the problem of passing a method on a C++ object
+ * to an API that requires a classic-C function pointer. Typically such a
+ * callback API accepts a void* pointer along with the function pointer, and
+ * the function pointer signature accepts a void* parameter. The API passes
+ * the caller's pointer value into the callback function so it can find its
+ * data. In C++, there are a few ways to deal with this case:
+ *
+ * - Use a static method with correct signature. If you don't need access to a
+ * specific instance, that works fine.
+ * - Store the object statically (or store a static pointer to a non-static
+ * instance). As long as you only care about one instance, that works, but
+ * starts to get a little icky. As soon as there's more than one pertinent
+ * instance, fight valiantly against the temptation to stuff the instance
+ * pointer into a static pointer variable "just for a moment."
+ * - Code a static trampoline callback function that accepts the void* user
+ * data pointer, casts it to the appropriate class type and calls the actual
+ * method on that class.
+ *
+ * ClassicCallback encapsulates the last. You need only construct a
+ * ClassicCallback instance somewhere that will survive until the callback is
+ * called, binding the target C++ callable. You then call its get_callback()
+ * and get_userdata() methods to pass an appropriate classic-C function
+ * pointer and void* user data pointer, respectively, to the old-style
+ * callback API. get_callback() synthesizes a static trampoline function
+ * that casts the user data pointer and calls the bound C++ callable.
