+// static local variables or static functions. This is intended to be used in
+// macro definitions to optimize the cost of generated code. Do NOT use it on
+// symbols exported from translation unit since it may casue a link time
+// conflict.

+// Example:

+// #define MY_MACRO(txt)
+// namespace {
+//  char VeryVeryLongVarName[] ABSL_INTERNAL_UNIQUE_SMALL_NAME() = txt;
+//  const char* VeryVeryLongFuncName() ABSL_INTERNAL_UNIQUE_SMALL_NAME();
