Abstract
A method that uses a single callback function for a multiphase service with possible discontinuation of execution between the phases. The method is based on assignment of a case in the callback function for each phase or state of the service and a stack of state descriptors. At each call to the callback function, the top descriptor is popped off the stack and the appropriate case in the callback function is run.
