// This test shows the use of an ACE_Auto_Event as a signaling
// mechanism. Two threads are created (one a reader, the other a
// writer). The reader waits till the writer has completed
// calculations. Upon waking up the reader prints the data calculated
// by the writer. The writer thread calculates the value and signals
// the reader when the calculation completes.
