The NamedCounter service allows you to do synchronization based on a
numeric count. For example, the STAF Semaphore service provides named
Event semaphores, but these semaphores only have 2 states (post / reset).
The NamedCounter service allows you to essentially create a semaphore with
any number of states.
As an example, if part of your test automation included initialization of
a pool of 20-30 servers, and after 10 of the servers have completed their
initialization, you wanted to kick off your testcases against the server
pool, you could use a NamedCounter, where each server would increment the
named counter when it completes its initialization, and the test
automation would only kick off the server pool testcases when the named
counter has reached a value of 10.
