Detailed Description
       Somewhat generic queue processing class to establish a producer consumer queue.

       This may be used to buffer cdr records, or for other purposes where an in-memory queue is needed for rapid posting. This class is derived
       from Mutex and maintains a linked list. A thread is used to dequeue data and pass it to a callback method that is used in place of 'run'
       for each item present on the queue. The conditional is used to signal the run thread when new data is posted.

       This class was changed by Angelo Naselli to have a timeout on the queue

       in memory data queue interface.

Constructor &; Destructor Documentation
   ost::ThreadQueue::ThreadQueue (const char *id, intpri, size_tstack = 0)
       Create instance of our queue and give it a process priority. Parameters:
	   id queue ID.
	   pri process priority.
	   stack stack size.

   virtual ost::ThreadQueue::~ThreadQueue () [virtual]
       Destroy the queue.

Member Function Documentation
   virtual void ost::ThreadQueue::final () [protected],  [virtual]
       Reimplemented from ost::Thread.

   virtual void ost::ThreadQueue::onTimer (void) [protected],  [virtual]
       A derivable method to call when the timout is expired.

   void ost::ThreadQueue::post (const void *data, unsignedlen)
       Put some unspecified data into this queue. A new qd structure is created and sized to contain a copy of the actual content.

       Parameters:
	   data pointer to data.
	   len size of data.

   virtual void ost::ThreadQueue::runQueue (void *data) [protected],  [pure virtual]
       Virtual callback method to handle processing of a queued data items. After the item is processed, it is deleted from memory. We can call
       multiple instances of runQueue in order if multiple items are waiting.

       Parameters:
	   data item being dequed.

   void ost::ThreadQueue::setTimer (timeout_ttimeout)
       Set the queue timeout. When the timer expires, the onTimer() method is called for the thread

       Parameters:
	   timeout timeout in milliseconds.

   virtual void ost::ThreadQueue::startQueue (void) [protected],  [virtual]
       Start of dequeing. Maybe we need to connect a database or something, so we have a virtual...

   virtual void ost::ThreadQueue::stopQueue (void) [protected],  [virtual]
       End of dequeing, we expect the queue is empty for now. Maybe we need to disconnect a database or something, so we have another virtual.
