Detailed Description

Thread-safe console output class.

This class provides a thread-safe wrapper around std::cout. It uses a mutex to ensure that output operations from multiple threads don't interleave, resulting in garbled output.

Example usage:

qb::io::cout() << "Thread " << thread_id << " is running";

Note

For production code, it's preferable to use the logging system rather than direct console output.
