/*  This program serves as an example for how to write an async RPC service,
    using the RAW request/reply pattern and nn_poll.  The server receives
    messages and keeps them on a list, replying to them.

    Our demonstration application layer protocol is simple.  The client sends
    a number of milliseconds to wait before responding.  The server just gives
    back an empty reply after waiting that long.

    To run this program, start the server as async_demo <url> -s
    Then connect to it with the client as async_client <url> <msec>.

    For example:

    % ./async_demo tcp://127.0.0.1:5555 -s &
    % ./async_demo tcp://127.0.0.1:5555 323
    Request took 324 milliseconds.
