SimpleProducer example inherits from Runnable.. curious why?

Hi All, in the examples that come with the CMS distribution, I see the
following...
class SimpleProducer: public Runnable

is there a reason why a producer has to inherit from Runnable. The run()
function is called like any other functions.

any insight is appreciated.

thanks
Nishant

It doesn't really have to be, but that code is just a cut and paste from
the main example file in src/example/main.cpp.  It doesn't hurt anything
that it does so it was never removed.
