The first part describes how the application can ask for the current state of a dial-up connection. The second part describes how the application can be notified of changes in the state of a dial-up connection. </p> <section><title>How to ask for the current state of a dial-up
+          connection</title> <p>To ask for the current state of a dial-up connection, an application calls the <xref href="GUID-BED8A733-2ED7-31AD-A911-C1F4707C67FD.dita#GUID-BED8A733-2ED7-31AD-A911-C1F4707C67FD/GUID-E2FAF324-3011-35ED-B31E-57E4F5CDE46A"><apiname>RConnection::Progress()</apiname></xref> function passing in a <codeph>TNifProgress</codeph> object. On return, the <codeph>iStage</codeph> data member of the <codeph>TNifProgress</codeph> object contains the information that defines the current state of the connection. </p> </section> <section><title>How to be notified of changes in the state of a dial-up
+          connection</title> <p>The request that the application makes is an <keyword>asynchronous request</keyword>. An asynchronous request is not guaranteed to complete at the time of the return of the function call. </p> <p>To make the request, an application calls the <xref href="GUID-BED8A733-2ED7-31AD-A911-C1F4707C67FD.dita#GUID-BED8A733-2ED7-31AD-A911-C1F4707C67FD/GUID-96DC395D-B5EE-3F26-8EFC-52E7AF64ED93"><apiname>RConnection::ProgressNotification()</apiname></xref> function. </p> <p>The function takes a <codeph>TRequestStatus</codeph> object, as is the model with asynchronous requests, and the <xref href="GUID-D8F0728B-D4D7-36C3-A858-0D5155841C46.dita"><apiname>TNifProgressBuf</apiname></xref> package buffer which packages a <codeph>TNifProgress</codeph> object. </p> <p>When the request completes, the <codeph>iStage</codeph> data member of the <codeph>TNifProgress</codeph> object contains the information defining the current state of the connection. </p> <p>An outstanding request for notification can be cancelled using the <xref href="GUID-BED8A733-2ED7-31AD-A911-C1F4707C67FD.dita#GUID-BED8A733-2ED7-31AD-A911-C1F4707C67FD/GUID-6D2335FD-EDA1-3C60-AA9C-E7BADA0FA5B1"><apiname>RConnection::CancelProgressNotification()</apiname></xref> <codeph/>member function of <xref href="GUID-BED8A733-2ED7-31AD-A911-C1F4707C67FD.dita"><apiname>RConnection</apiname></xref>. </p> <p>We recommend that an application package this functionality as an active object. </p> </section> <section><title>Historical Note</title> <p>Prior to Symbian OS v7.0S, the <codeph>Progress()</codeph>, <codeph>ProgressNotification()</codeph> and <codeph>CancelProgressNotification()</codeph> member functions of <codeph>RNif</codeph> were called instead of the <codeph>Progress()</codeph>, <codeph>ProgressNotification()</codeph> and <codeph>CancelProgressNotification()</codeph> member functions of <xref href="GUID-BED8A733-2ED7-31AD-A911-C1F4707C67FD.dita"><apiname>RConnection</apiname></xref>. </p> </section> </conbody></concept>
