/**
 * \brief This class is a Thread Object which allows to create Functors and attach them to this thread object.
 * 
 * Subclass ThreadWorkerBase to implement your own functor to execute your custom code threaded.
 * 
 * Use setDone(true) to shut down the thread nonblocking, or call cancel() to shut down the thread blocking (both called from outside of the workerthread).
 * Inside the workerthread's functor, you can set the functor parameter done=true to shutdown the thread after the current execution.
