silc_async_abort

SYNOPSIS

    void silc_async_abort(SilcAsyncOperation op,
                          SilcAsyncOperationAbort abort_cb, void *context);

DESCRIPTION

This function is used by upper layer that received SilcAsyncOperation context from an asynchronous function, to abort the asynchronous operation. The `op' becomes invalid after this function returns. It is also guaranteed (assuming the use of this API is implemented correctly) that some other completion callback is not called after the operation was aborted. However, if the caller wants to receive a callback when aborting the caller may specify the `abort_cb' and `context' which will be called after the operation is aborted, but before the `op' becomes invalid. The `abort_cb' is called immediately inside this function.
