Tasks on Windows 95/98/Me, NetWare, and UNIX

On Windows 95/98/Me, NetWare, and UNIX machines, each task is an operating system thread. When Adaptive Server Anywhere receives a request, an operating system thread picks up the request. The operating system thread runs until the request is complete.

If the server receives a request while the first request is running, the second request is assigned to a different thread. If a thread is blocked while completing a task, it does not pick up another request; instead, it waits until it can complete the current request.
