Detailed Description

class Condition.

This class encapsulates a condition, that is, it allows a thread to suspend execution until some condition is satisfied. The way to use it is calling its wait() method. When the condition is satisfied the class will notify it to the waiting threads.

This is an abstract class and the objects deriving from it should implement the condition() method.
