#define ABSL_ATTRIBUTE_PURE_FUNCTION

+// ABSL_ATTRIBUTE_LIFETIME_BOUND indicates that a resource owned by a function
+// parameter or implicit object parameter is retained by the return value of the
+// annotated function (or, for a parameter of a constructor, in the value of the
+// constructed object). This attribute causes warnings to be produced if a
+// temporary object does not live long enough.
+//
+// When applied to a reference parameter, the referenced object is assumed to be
+// retained by the return value of the function. When applied to a non-reference
+// parameter (for example, a pointer or a class type), all temporaries
+// referenced by the parameter are assumed to be retained by the return value of
+// the function.
+//
