Depends on how much context you need to deal with the response. For maximum flexibility, have your "things pending responses" variable be an array of coderefs, where for each incoming packet, each coderef is called in turn until one returns true indicating that it handled the packet. Then
a callback can push an anonymous closure onto the array with whatever context it needs. If a response is always going to be a single packet, it probably makes most sense for the main loop's loop through the array to remove the coderef that handled the packet; if not, the pushed coderef itself should when it's received all of its response.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
