/**
   @class Dispatcher
   
   @brief A generic thread-bank class.
   
   This is intended to be a generic thread-bank class that operates under
   the paradigm of accepting messages, modifying those messages, and posting
   the messages back to the originator through the SipStack. (Since this uses
   ApplicationMessages, the message will automatically get back to the correct
   TransactionUser; what happens from there is the coder's business.)
   
   This class gets
   generality by using prototyping of a very simple class, Worker. All the
   user must do is subclass Worker to do the work needed, and pass an instance
   of this class when constructing the Dispatcher. Dispatcher will clone this
   Worker as many times as needed to fill the thread bank. 
   
   @note The functions in this class are intended to be thread-safe.
*/
