public class ThreadQueue
extends java.lang.Object

This class implements a queue for blocking and releasing threads in a FIFO order.

When a thread calls the capture() method it is blocked until release() is invoked. Threads are guaranteed to be released in the order in which they were captured.

This class is used to ensure fairness when sharing finite resources across multiple threads.
