/*

    This is an example illustrating the use of the multithreaded_object.

    This is a very simple example.  It creates 3 threads that
    just print messages to the screen.



    Example program output:
    0 INFO  [1] mto: thread1(): hurray threads!
    0 INFO  [2] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
    0 INFO  [3] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
  700 INFO  [1] mto: thread1(): hurray threads!
  800 INFO  [2] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
  801 INFO  [3] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 1400 INFO  [1] mto: thread1(): hurray threads!
 1604 INFO  [2] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 1605 INFO  [3] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 2100 INFO  [1] mto: thread1(): hurray threads!
 2409 INFO  [2] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 2409 INFO  [3] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 2801 INFO  [1] mto: thread1(): hurray threads!
 3001 INFO  [0] mto: paused threads
 6001 INFO  [0] mto: starting threads back up from paused state
 6001 INFO  [2] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 6001 INFO  [1] mto: thread1(): hurray threads!
 6001 INFO  [3] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 6705 INFO  [1] mto: thread1(): hurray threads!
 6805 INFO  [2] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 6805 INFO  [3] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 7405 INFO  [1] mto: thread1(): hurray threads!
 7609 INFO  [2] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 7609 INFO  [3] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 8105 INFO  [1] mto: thread1(): hurray threads!
 8413 INFO  [2] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 8413 INFO  [3] mto: thread2(): hurray threads!
 8805 INFO  [1] mto: thread1(): hurray threads!

  The first column is the number of milliseconds since program start, the second
  column is the logging level, the third column is the thread id, and the rest
  is the log message.
