Imperfect C++: Update to the code samples

TSS Store API

Mistakenly, the Synesis TSS API was omitted from the CD. It's provided here.

The code archive ./tss.zip contains the following:

a small sub-set of the Synesis Software Public Domain Source Code Library (SSPDSCL), located in ./test/include/sspdscl
a very small sub-set of the internal Synesis Software codebase - in fact, just the one file MLTssStr.h - located in ./test/include/synesis-private
the implementation file - MLTssStr.cpp - of the TSS Store API - located in ./test/src
debug and release versions of the Synesis common module - MMCmnBas.dll and MMCmnBaD.dll (and MMCmnBaD.pdb) - located in ./test/bin. The DLLs are compatible with all versions of Visual C++ and Intel C/C++ (on Win32).
import libraries for the debug and release versions of the Synesis common module - MMCmnBas.lib and MMCmnBaD.lib - located in ./test/lib. The DLLs are compatible with all versions of Visual C++ and Intel C/C++ (on Win32).
test program for the TSS Store API, demonstrating its use with a multithreaded scenario: 1 main thread that creates a TSS datum, and 10 worker threads that do so 1000 times each. It is called tss_link_test.cpp, and is located in ./test/tss_link_test. It must be compiled with multithreading enabled, and linked with the requisite import library.

Note: the import libraries and DLLs provided are only compatible with Intel C/C++ and Visual C++ on Win32. If you need a version for another compiler, please place a request via the contact page (http://synesis.com.au/publishing/imperfect/cpp/contact.php).

Note: The TSS API implementation file and the test file both need the STLSoft libraries on the include path. The latest version can be obtained from http://stlsoft.org/downloads.html.
