Detailed Description
This class defines a thread mutual exclusion object. A mutex is where a piece of code or data cannot be accessed by more than one thread at a time. To prevent this the PMutex is used in the following manner: {verbatim} PMutex mutex;
...
mutex.Wait();
... critical section - only one thread at a time here.
mutex.Signal();
... {verbatim} The first thread will pass through the Wait()# function, a second thread will block on that function until the first calls the Signal()# function, releasing the second thread.
