-- This package provides a thread-safe generic bounded buffer abstraction.
-- Instances are useful directly or as parts of the implementations of other
-- abstractions, such as mailboxes.
-- Bounded_Buffer is declared explicitly as a protected type, rather than as
-- a simple limited private type completed as a protected type, so that
-- clients may make calls accordingly (i.e., conditional/timed entry calls).
