  14 The functions and macros here mainly exist to make it writing the code which
  15 may be compiled in multi thread build (wxUSE_THREADS = 1) as well as in single
  16 thread configuration (wxUSE_THREADS = 0).
  17
  18 For example, a static variable must be protected against simultaneous access by
  19 multiple threads in the former configuration but in the latter the extra
  20 overhead of using the critical section is not needed. To solve this problem,
  21 the wxCRITICAL_SECTION macro may be used to create and use the critical section
  22 only when needed.
