Demonstrates the use of queued asynchronous functions

Overview

This add-in demonstrates the use of queued asynchronous functions.

Shared resource

The add-in makes use of a shared resource, implemented as a single global instance of CSharedResource. This class is derived from CXlLockable and is used in a thread-safe manner, by calling the method UseResource().
