/**
 * @class   vtkCriticalSection
 * @brief   Critical section locking class
 *
 * vtkCriticalSection allows the locking of variables which are accessed
 * through different threads.  This header file also defines
 * vtkSimpleCriticalSection which is not a subclass of vtkObject.
 * The API is identical to that of vtkMutexLock, and the behavior is
 * identical as well, except on Windows 9x/NT platforms. The only difference
 * on these platforms is that vtkMutexLock is more flexible, in that
 * it works across processes as well as across threads, but also costs
 * more, in that it evokes a 600-cycle x86 ring transition. The
 * vtkCriticalSection provides a higher-performance equivalent (on
 * Windows) but won't work across processes. Since it is unclear how,
 * in vtk, an object at the vtk level can be shared across processes
 * in the first place, one should use vtkCriticalSection unless one has
 * a very good reason to use vtkMutexLock. If higher-performance equivalents
 * for non-Windows platforms (Irix, SunOS, etc) are discovered, they
 * should replace the implementations in this class
