    @short          implement a gate to block multiple threads at the same time or unblock all
    @descr          A gate can be used as a negative-condition! You can open a "door" - wait() will not block ...
                    or you can close it - wait() blocks till open() is called again.
                    Then all currently waiting threads are running immediately - but new ones are blocked!

    @attention      To prevent us against wrong using, the default ctor, copy ctor and the =operator are marked private!
