Having a map from std::string to a factory function returning LLEventPump* is a cool idea, especially since you could statically populate such a map with string literals and little lambdas. Unfortunately, static initialization of any data is a bad idea when control can reach consuming code before that module's static data are constructed. Since LLEventPumps is already an LLSingleton, it's simple enough to make its map non-static and initialize it in the constructor. But another recent static factory-function map was introduced in llleaplistener.cpp to support the LLLeapListener::newpump() operation. That involves no LLSingletons. Introduce LLEventPumps::make(name, tweak, type) to instantiate an LLEventPump subclass of the specified type with specified (name, tweak) parameters. Instances returned by make() are owned by LLEventPumps, as with obtain(). Introduce LLEventPumps::BadType exception for when the type string isn't recognized. LLEventPumps::obtain() can then simply call make() when the specified instance name doesn't already exist. The configuration data used internally by obtain() becomes { string instance name, string subclass name }. Although this too is currently initialized in the LLEventPumps constructor, migrating it to a configuration file would now be far more straightforward than before. LLLeapListener::newpump(), too, can call LLEventPumps::make() with the caller-specified type string. This eliminates that static factory map. newpump() must catch BadType and report the error back to its invoker. Given that the LLEventPump subclass instances returned by make() are owned by LLEventPumps rather than LLLeapListener, there is no further need for the LLLeapListener::mEventPumps ptr_map, which was used only to manage lifetime. Also remove LLLeapListener's "killpump" operation since LLEventPumps provides no corresponding functionality.
