Hello Boost Users,

I'm trying to learn multi threading in C++.

http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_39_0/doc/html/thread/thread_management.html

says

"Objects of type boost::thread  are movable, however, so they can be
stored in move-aware containers, and returned from functions."

Please help me understand what are movable objects.
