/** \class TGWin32ProxyBase
\ingroup win32
 
Proxy classes provide thread-safe interface to global objects.
 
For example: TGWin32VirtualXProxy (to gVirtualX).
 
Proxy object creates callback object and posts a windows message to
"processing thread". When windows message is received callback
("real method") is executed.
 
For example:
   gVirtualX->ClearWindow()
 
   - callback object created containing pointer to function
     corresponding TGWin32::ClearWindow() method
   - message to "processing thread" (main thread) is posted
   - TGWin32::ClearWindow() method is executed inside main thread
   - thread containing gVirtualX proxy object waits for reply
     from main thread that TGWin32::ClearWindow() is completed.
 
Howto create proxy class:
 
 1. Naming.
      name of proxy = TGWin32 + the name of "virtual base class" + Proxy
 
      e.g. TGWin32VirtualXProxy = TGWin32 + VirtualX + Proxy
 
 2. Definition of global object
      As example check definition and implementation of
      gVirtualX global object
 
 3. Class definition.
      proxy class must be inherited from "virtual base class" and
      TGWin32ProxyBase class. For example:
 
      class TGWin32VirtualX : public TVirtualX , public  TGWin32ProxyBase
 
 4. Constructors, destructor, extra methods.
    - constructors and destructor of proxy class do nothing
    - proxy class must contain two extra static methods
      RealObject(), ProxyObject(). Each of them return pointer to object
      of virtual base class.
 
    For example:
      static TVirtualX *RealObject();
      static TVirtualX *ProxyObject();
 
 5. Implementation
      TGWin32ProxyDefs.h file contains a set of macros which very
      simplify implementation.
    - RETURN_PROXY_OBJECT macro implements ProxyObject() method, e.g.
      RETURN_PROXY_OBJECT(VirtualX)
    - the names of other macros say about itself.
 
      For example:
         VOID_METHOD_ARG0(VirtualX,SetFillAttributes,1)
            void TGWin32VirtualXProxy::SetFillAttributes()
 
         RETURN_METHOD_ARG0_CONST(VirtualX,Visual_t,GetVisual)
            Visual_t TGWin32VirtualXProxy::GetVisual() const
 
         RETURN_METHOD_ARG2(VirtualX,Int_t,OpenPixmap,UInt_t,w,UInt_t,h)
            Int_t TGWin32VirtualXProxy::OpenPixmap,UInt_t w,UInt_t h)
