Detailed Description

This class starts a read operation for the PReadWriteMutex on construction and automatically ends the read operation on destruction.

This is very usefull for constructs such as:

    void func()
    {
      PReadWaitAndSignal mutexWait(myMutex);
      if (condition)
        return;
      do_something();
      if (other_condition)
        return;
      do_something_else();
    }
