// C++11 or greater

// A multi-threaded client that calls proton::container::run() in one thread, sends
// messages in another and receives messages in a third.
//
// Note this client does not deal with flow-control. If the sender is faster
// than the receiver, messages will build up in memory on the sending side.
// See @ref multithreaded_client_flow_control.cpp for a more complex example with
// flow control.
//
// NOTE: no proper error handling
