+// nsIStringEnumerator/nsIUTF8StringEnumerator implementations
+//
+// Currently all implementations support both interfaces. The
+// constructors below provide the most common interface for the given
+// type (i.e. nsIStringEnumerator for char16_t* strings, and so
+// forth) but any resulting enumerators can be queried to the other
+// type. Internally, the enumerators will hold onto the type that was
+// passed in and do conversion if GetNext() for the other type of
+// string is called.
+
+// There are a few different types of enumerators:
+
+//
+// These enumerators hold a pointer to the array. Be careful
+// because modifying the array may confuse the iterator, especially if
+// you insert or remove elements in the middle of the array.
+//
+
+// The non-adopting enumerator requires that the array sticks around
+// at least as long as the enumerator does. These are for constant
+// string arrays that the enumerator does not own, this could be used
+// in VERY specialized cases such as when the provider KNOWS that the
+// string enumerator will be consumed immediately, or will at least
+// outlast the array.
+// For example:
+//
+// nsTArray<nsCString> array;
+// array.AppendCString("abc");
+// array.AppendCString("def");
+// NS_NewStringEnumerator(&enumerator, &array, true);
+//
+// // call some internal method which iterates the enumerator
+// InternalMethod(enumerator);
+// NS_RELEASE(enumerator);
+//

+
+// Adopting string enumerators assume ownership of the array and will
+// call |operator delete| on the array when the enumerator is destroyed
+// this is useful when the provider creates an array solely for the
+// purpose of creating the enumerator.
+// For example:
+//
+// nsTArray<nsCString>* array = new nsTArray<nsCString>;
+// array->AppendString("abcd");
+// NS_NewAdoptingStringEnumerator(&result, array);

+
+
+// these versions take a refcounted "owner" which will be addreffed
+// when the enumerator is created, and destroyed when the enumerator
+// is released. This allows providers to give non-owning pointers to
+// ns*StringArray member variables without worrying about lifetime
+// issues
+// For example:
+//
+// nsresult MyClass::Enumerate(nsIUTF8StringEnumerator** aResult) {
+//     mCategoryList->AppendString("abcd");
+//     return NS_NewStringEnumerator(aResult, mCategoryList, this);
