    @descr          If you use a lock or mutex as a member of your class and whish to use it earlier then other ones
					you should have a look on this implementation. You must use it as the first base class
					of your implementation - because base classes are initialized by his order and before your
                    member! Thats why ist a good place to declare your thread help member so.

    @short          helper to set right lock in right situation
    @descr          This helper support different types of locking:
                        a)  no locks - transparent for user!
                            This could be usefull for simluation or single threaded environments!
                        b)  own mutex
                            An object use his own osl-mutex to be threadsafe. Usefull for easy and exclusiv locking.
                        c)  solar mutex
                            An object use our solar mutex and will be a part of a greater safed "threadsafe code block".
                            Could be usefull for simulation and testing of higher modules!
                        d)  fair rw-lock
                            An object use an implementation of a fair rw-lock. This increase granularity of t hreadsafe mechanism
                            and should be used for high performance threadsafe code!

    @attention      We support two interfaces - "IMutex" and "IRWLock". Don't mix using of it!
                    A guard implementation should use one interface only!

    //  a) Make some member mutable for using in const functions!
    //  b) "m_eLockType" define, which of follow members is used!
    //     You can use "m_pFairRWLock" as a fair rw-lock (multiple reader / one writer / looks for incoming order of threads too) ...
    //     or you can use a normal osl mutex ("m_pOwnMutex") ...
    //     ... or the solarmuex as "m_pSolarMutex" (must be set from outside! because some components must be vcl-free!)
    //     ... but sometimes you need a shareable osl mutex!
    //     In this case you has some problems: i  ) If your lock type is set to E_OWNMUTEX => it's easy; you can use your member "m_pOwnMutex" - it's a osl mutex.
    //                                              Creation and using of "m_pShareableOslMutex" isn't neccessary!
    //                                         ii ) Otherwise you have no osl mutex ... so you must create "m_pShareableOslMutex" and use it twice!
    //                                              In this case you must lock two member everytime - "m_pShareableMutex" AND "m_pFairRWLock" or "m_pSolarMutex" or ...
    //                                              It isn't realy fine - but the only possible way.
    //                                         iii) There exist another special case - E_NOTHING is set! Then we should create this shareable mutex ...
    //                                              nad you can use it ... but this implmentation ignore it.
