We’ve all developed products that require us to present to the end-user a “please wait” message because, frankly, it’s a right royal pain in the @#$ to take the development and testing effort to engineer asynchronous code… everywhere. We usually reserve this effort, if at all, for those areas of our products that seems to encounter the issue the most often by evaluating, many times unconsciously, the cost/benefit ratio or, frankly, based on end-user “feedback”. This is complex stuff here! As much as 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 as well. So what if there was a way that we could get the benefit of asynchronous code without all the effort?
