How does one do asynchronous calls to the Connection Manager?
The docs I have (Inside Special K) give a weird description of the
completion routines. They are passed a Connection HANDLE. Of course,
a handle may not be valid at completion time, so there is a warning
saying that the handle may be NIL. There is also a sentence about a
(undescribed) parameter block pointed to by A0, but that may also not
be available.
With this essentially parameter-less completion routine, I can see no
way to have several asynchronous calls pending at the same time (at
least one per connection would be useful). Am I missing something?
