/**
* The SynchronizedMemberBlock class allows for easy creation of synchronized
* code blocks based on an Object's member level read/write lock. The
* SynchronizedMemberBlock object will ensure that the locks are acquired and
* released as part of starting and ending the code block.
*
* Member read/write locks are not a general purpose feature, and should not
* be used to protect blocking calls. They are intended to protect reads and
* writes to data member primitives, and other short non-blocking code
* blocks.
*
* Example usage:
* @code
* // outside of sync block
*     {
*     SynchronizedMemberWriteBlock syncWrite(self()); // write lock
*     acquired // critical section goes here
*     // ...
*     } // write lock released
* // outside of sync block
* @endcode
*
* A more friendly form is to use the COH_SYNCHRONIZED_MEMBER_WRITE
* macros. Example usage:
*
* @code
* // outside of sync block
* COH_SYNCHRONIZED_MEMBER_WRITE // write lock acquired
*   {
*   // critical section goes here
*   // ...
*   // ...
*   } // write lock released
* // outside of sync block
* @endcode
*
* The SynchronizedMemberWriteBlock class relies on its creator to ensure that
* the associated Object outlives the scope of the block. The helper macro
* ensures this by only allowing you to create a block for the encompassing
* Object, i.e. "this". If the blocks are manually created then the caller
* must ensure that the associated Object outlives the block.
*
* Note: This class indirectly derives from FinalizableBlock, allowing custom
* finalizers to be registered. The finalizers will execute after the lock has
* been released.
