Handling multiple telegrams

[DrMad]

Hi,
Thank you for this extraordinary work on EIB first of all !

Now I have this question:
I am using the async code below to check events on a KNX bus, and that seems to work fine.
How can I guarantee that I will not miss events (eg if I stay too long in the do_some_other_stuff routine, or if 2 events arrived "simultaneously") ?
Thanks for your help on this (it is pretty urgent for me...)

con = EIBSocketURL (ag[1]);
if (!con)
die ("Open failed");

if (EIBOpen_GroupSocket_async (con, 0) == -1)
die ("Connect failed");

while (1) {
if (EIB_Poll_Complete(con) != 0) {
len = EIBGetGroup_Src (con, sizeof (buf), buf, &src, &dest);
do_stuff(buf, &src, &dest);
}
do_some_other_stuff();
}

From memory/AFAIR: you won't loose any telegram as long as
do_some_other_stuff doesn't take forever.
It's a socket (buffer-size unknown but it's pretty big)..

Sorry, forgot to say "thank you" for the prompt reply...
