    @descr          We implement two guards for using an rw-lock. But if you wish to implement
                    different rw-locks to you will have problems by using with same guard implementation!
                    Thats why we define this "pure virtual base class" ...
                    All rw-locks must support this base interface for working and all guard must use this one too!
