+ * @file llinitdestroyclass.h
+ * @author Nat Goodspeed
+ * @date 2015-05-27
+ * @brief LLInitClass / LLDestroyClass mechanism
+ *
+ * The LLInitClass template, extracted from llui.h, ensures that control will
+ * reach a static initClass() method. LLDestroyClass does the same for a
+ * static destroyClass() method.
+ *
+ * The distinguishing characteristics of these templates are:
+ *
+ * - All LLInitClass<T>::initClass() methods are triggered by an explicit call
+ * to LLInitClassList::instance().fireCallbacks(). Presumably this call
+ * happens sometime after all static objects in the program have been
+ * initialized. In other words, each LLInitClass<T>::initClass() method
+ * should be able to make some assumptions about global program state.
+ *
+ * - Similarly, LLDestroyClass<T>::destroyClass() methods are triggered by
+ * LLDestroyClassList::instance().fireCallbacks(). Again, presumably this
+ * happens at a well-defined moment in the program's shutdown sequence.
+ *
+ * - The initClass() calls happen in an unspecified sequence. You may not rely
+ * on the relative ordering of LLInitClass<T>::initClass() versus another
+ * LLInitClass<U>::initClass() method. If you need such a guarantee, use
+ * LLSingleton instead and make the dependency explicit.
+ *
+ * - Similarly, LLDestroyClass<T>::destroyClass() may happen either before or
+ * after LLDestroyClass<U>::destroyClass(). You cannot rely on that order.
