Blocking Send and Inline Mode

Programs that use inline event queues must ensure that callbacks return promptly and do not include operations that might block. If a program with inline event queues sends messages from within a callback, administrators must ensure that those outbound transports specify only non-blocking send. In this situation, blocking send could cause the send call within the callback to block the inline dispatch thread (even though the programmer expected the send call to return immediately).
