-<P>Ok, so we've got a main() loop that sets up the acceptor and we've seen
-how easy it is to create the acceptor object.&nbsp; So far, we've hardly
-written any code at all.&nbsp; Well, that's just about to change...
-
-<P>First, we look at <I><A HREF="client_handler.h">client_handler.h</A></I>
-for the declaration of the Client_Handler object.&nbsp; Then we look at
-the definition where all of the real work of the application takes place.

- to have an ACE_SOCK_Stream for the actually connection. With a direct
- derivative of ACE_Event_Handler, you'll have to contain and maintain an

- one type of callback, the callback mask is provided to inform

- maintain state information between your handle_* method calls. The _handle
