Class Description

                                                                      
 TCondition                                                           
                                                                      
 This class implements a condition variable. Use a condition variable 
 to signal threads. The actual work is done via the TConditionImp     
 class (either TPosixCondition or TWin32Condition).                   
                                                                      

 Create a condition variable. The actual condition implementation
 will be provided via the TThreadFactory. If no external mutex is
 provided one will be created. Use GetMutex() to get this mutex
 and use it before calling Signal() or Broadcast().

 Clean up condition variable.

 Get internally created mutex. Use it to lock resources
 before calling Signal() or Broadcast(). Returns 0 if
 external mutex was provided in TCondition ctor.

 Wait to be signaled.

 Wait to be signaled or till the timer times out.
 This method is given an absolute time since the beginning of
 the EPOCH (use TThread::GetTime() to get this absolute time).
 To wait for a relative time from now, use
 TCondition::TimedWait(ULong_t ms).
 Returns 0 if successfully signalled, 1 if time expired and -1 in
 case of error.
