Thanks Jiri, it's probably because I still don't know what I'm doing :-)  Can
you point me at any HID examples that show how to use a completion handler?
I'm afraid after hours of staring at HID code I'm still none the wiser as to
how this part of the system works.

Basically I have a USB HID device, and it works by submitting a HID report,
then waiting until it replies with (I assume) another HID report.  The
messages are all proprietary.  I can send the reports fine, but half the time
I get garbage coming back, which I assume is because I'm not getting the
message quickly enough and processing whatever was in the buffer instead.

If you're able to point me in the direction of an example showing how to set
up and use a completion handler, hopefully I can change my code to work like
that instead.

Many thanks,
Adam.
