// PThread

/** This class defines a thread of execution in the system. A <i>thread</i> is
   an independent flow of processor instructions. This differs from a
   <i>process</i> which also embodies a program address space and resource
   allocation. So threads can share memory and resources as they run in the
   context of a given process. A process always contains at least one thread.
   This is reflected in this library by the <code>PProcess</code> class being
   descended from the <code>PThread</code> class.

   The implementation of a thread is platform dependent, but it is
   assumed that the platform has some support for native threads.
   Previous versions of PTLib/PWLib have some support for co-operative
   threads, but this has been removed.

       Note that the exact timing of the execution of code in threads can
       never be predicted. Thus you you can get a race condition on
       intialising a descendent class. To avoid this problem a thread is
       always started suspended. You must call the <code>Resume()</code> function after
       your descendent class construction is complete.

       then the <code>PThread</code> is assumed to be allocated with the new operator and

       terminated or executes to completion (usually the latter).
