+/** @short Template for implementing singleton classes.
+ This is a replacement for salhelper::SingletonRef, but which uses std::mutex instead of osl::Mutex.
+
+ Such classes can be instantiated every time they
+ are needed. But the internal wrapped object will
+ be created one times only. Of course it's used
+ resources are referenced one times only too.
+ This template hold it alive till the last
+ reference is gone. Further all operations
+ on this reference are threadsafe. Only
+ calls directly to the internal object (which modify
+ its state) must be made threadsafe by the object itself
+ or from outside.
+
+ @attention To prevent the code against race conditions, it's not
+ allowed to start operations inside the ctor
+ of the internal wrapped object - especially operations
+ which needs a reference to the same singleton too.
+
+ The only chance to suppress such strange constellations
+ is a lazy-init mechanism.
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>a) The singleton class can provide a special init()
+ method, which must be called as first after creation.</li>
+ <li>b) The singleton class can call a special impl_init()
+ method implicit for every called interface method.</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ Note further that this singleton pattern can work only, if
+ all user of such singleton are located inside the same library!
+ Because static values can't be exported - e.g. from windows libraries.
