Private Client Sockets

Previously a common pool of sockets was shared by concurrent RPC requests. Making this concurrency work requires a "helper" thread created to read from all of the open sockets, and passing received data onto the call thread for which it is intended. With "Private client sockets" there are a couple of sockets (2/3), which will only be used for individual requests (private to the request thread). This reduces the overhead of a "helper" thread, in case of small applications. When out of private sockets, socket sharing comes into effect.

The new version of RPC 1.2.1 supports the exception-handling feature of RPC. The application developer can use the exception handling routines (TRY, CATCH, CATCH-ALL etc.).
