The methods documented in this chapter operate on objects of the Globals class.
The Globals class maintains a global hash table to support asynchronous event processing. In previous releases of InterChange Server, a collaboration communicated with other collaborations and connectors exclusively through synchronous service calls. With the introduction of the Globals class, collaborations can now send or receive a communication from another collaboration or connector, wait for a specified amount of time for the appropriate response, and then continue processing the event in the same thread.
Table 70 lists the methods in the Globals class.
