Asynchronous Programming
We’ve all developed products that require us to present the end-user with a “please wait” message because the development and testing effort to engineer asynchronous code was too painful. We usually reserved the effort to incorporate asynchronous code into our applications, if at all, for the most critical areas of our products. Although I enjoy developing and debugging code as much as the next person, I do have other things in life that I’d like to do.
So what if there was a way that we could get the benefit of asynchronous code without all the effort? This is your lucky day! In my presentation I will show you how easy it is to incorporate asynchronous code into your applications.
