Class ThreadPool

Known Subclasses:
ThreadDispatcher

This class (hopefully) generalizes the functionality of a pool of threads to which work can be dispatched.

dispatch(), dispatchWithCallback() and stop() should only be called from a single thread, unless you make a subclass where stop() and _startSomeWorkers() are synchronized.
