ThreadWorkerDemo.cpp

/**
 A simple example of a class that encapsulates a thread and a worker which
 works within that thread.

 See the blog article at https://codesmith.hashnode.dev/ for more info
 on this tutorial.

 By far this is NOT perfect. As all persons we all are learning new things
 I want to share everything I have learned in the past to anyone
 willing to come to the industry or learn these things just for hobby!

 For an example, please see the provided example in
 ThreadWorkerDemo.cpp

 You can pass any task with a lambda to a free worker as showed.

 I love programming, I work in the field and it is my hobby!

 I hope you will contact me.

 If you find this thing useful, I would not mind of you to get in to
 contact with a fellow and old time programmer <3
