#
# In concurrent programming, a monitor is an object or module intended to be
# used safely by more than one thread. The defining characteristic of a
# monitor is that its methods are executed with mutual exclusion. That is, at
# each point in time, at most one thread may be executing any of its methods.
# This mutual exclusion greatly simplifies reasoning about the implementation
# of monitors compared to reasoning about parallel code that updates a data
# structure.
#
# You can read more about the general principles on the Wikipedia page for
# Monitors[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monitor_%28synchronization%29]
#
# == Examples
#
# === Simple object.extend
#
# require 'monitor.rb'
#
# buf = []
# buf.extend(MonitorMixin)
# empty_cond = buf.new_cond
#
# # consumer
# Thread.start do
# loop do
# buf.synchronize do
# empty_cond.wait_while { buf.empty? }
# print buf.shift
# end
# end
# end
#
# # producer
# while line = ARGF.gets
# buf.synchronize do
# buf.push(line)
# empty_cond.signal
# end
# end
#
# The consumer thread waits for the producer thread to push a line to buf
# while <tt>buf.empty?</tt>. The producer thread (main thread) reads a
# line from ARGF and pushes it into buf then calls <tt>empty_cond.signal</tt>
# to notify the consumer thread of new data.
#
# === Simple Class include
#
# require 'monitor'
#
# class SynchronizedArray < Array
#
# include MonitorMixin
#
# def initialize(*args)
# super(*args)
# end
#
# alias :old_shift :shift
# alias :old_unshift :unshift
#
# def shift(n=1)
# self.synchronize do
# self.old_shift(n)
# end
# end
#
# def unshift(item)
# self.synchronize do
# self.old_unshift(item)
# end
# end
#
# # other methods ...
# end
#
# +SynchronizedArray+ implements an Array with synchronized access to items.
# This Class is implemented as subclass of Array which includes the
# MonitorMixin module.

# Documentation comments:
# - All documentation comes from Nutshell.
# - MonitorMixin.new_cond appears in the example, but is not documented in
# Nutshell.
# - All the internals (internal modules Accessible and Initializable, class
# ConditionVariable) appear in RDoc. It might be good to hide them, by
# making them private, or marking them :nodoc:, etc.
# - RDoc doesn't recognise aliases, so we have mon_synchronize documented, but
# not synchronize.
# - mon_owner is in Nutshell, but appears as an accessor in a separate module
# here, so is hard/impossible to RDoc. Some other useful accessors
# (mon_count and some queue stuff) are also in this module, and don't appear
# directly in the RDoc output.
# - in short, it may be worth changing the code layout in this file to make the
# documentation easier
