// This file provides a builders for DictionaryValue and ListValue.  These
// aren't specific to extensions and could move up to base/ if there's interest
// from other sub-projects.
//
// The general pattern is to write:
//
//  scoped_ptr<BuiltType> result(FooBuilder()
//                               .Set(args)
//                               .Set(args)
//                               .Build());
//
// For methods that take other built types, you can pass the builder directly
// to the setter without calling Build():
//
// DictionaryBuilder().Set("key", ListBuilder()
//                         .Append("foo").Append("bar") /* No .Build() */);
//
// Because of limitations in C++03, and to avoid extra copies, you can't pass a
// just-constructed Builder into another Builder's method directly. Use the
// Pass() method.
//
// The Build() method invalidates its builder, and returns ownership of the
// built value.
//
// These objects are intended to be used as temporaries rather than stored
// anywhere, so the use of non-const reference parameters is likely to cause
// less confusion than usual.
