Detailed Description

holds the definition of the thread class

this is inspired from http://blog.emptycrate.com/node/270 But with the difference that thread managment is done in its own pure virtual class and arbitrary threaded work is done in inherited classes. Also has been added exception transmission support from sub threaded back to parent thread using the join() method of destructor
