36// Message queue allows passing message between threads.

38// This class is typically used for communicating between the main and worker

41// For this class a message is an object of arbitrary type T. Notice that
42// typically there must be some special message indicating that the thread
43// should terminate as there is no other way to gracefully shutdown a thread
44// waiting on the message queue.
