IWM4SSL – Selecting a Request from a Caller's Work Manager Queue

The IWM4SSL service selects the next work request from the queue associated with the caller's application environment. The caller must have previously connected to WLM using the IWM4CON service specifying SERVER_MANAGER=YES.

If there are no queued work requests waiting for selection the calling task will be suspended, pending arrival of work to do. The caller cannot rely upon asynchronous exits receiving control while the task is suspended.

After a work request is selected, the caller uses the IWM4STBG and IWM4STEN services to indicate the start and end of processing of the request.
