8/// # Wait groups vs barriers
9///
10/// `WaitGroup` is very similar to [`Barrier`], but there are a few differences:
11///
12/// * [`Barrier`] needs to know the number of threads at construction, while `WaitGroup` is cloned to
13/// register more threads.
14///
15/// * A [`Barrier`] can be reused even after all threads have synchronized, while a `WaitGroup`
16/// synchronizes threads only once.
17///
18/// * All threads wait for others to reach the [`Barrier`]. With `WaitGroup`, each thread can choose
19/// to either wait for other threads or to continue without blocking.
20///
21/// # Examples
22///
23/// ```
24/// use crossbeam_utils::sync::WaitGroup;
25/// use std::thread;
26///
27/// // Create a new wait group.
28/// let wg = WaitGroup::new();
29///
30/// for _ in 0..4 {
31/// // Create another reference to the wait group.
32/// let wg = wg.clone();
33///
34/// thread::spawn(move || {
35/// // Do some work.
36///
37/// // Drop the reference to the wait group.
38/// drop(wg);
39/// });
40/// }
41///
42/// // Block until all threads have finished their work.
43/// wg.wait();
44/// # std::thread::sleep(std::time::Duration::from_millis(500)); // wait for background threads closed: https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/issues/1371
