How does one construct the delegate / response handler pattern as used in HTTPBuilder?

[joseph beuckman]

I want to write an asynchronous function that accepts a closure with handlers like HTTPBuilder.request does. How is the function written?

When I call the function, it will look like this:

// calling my function now - we'll process the results when status is available...
myFunction(arg1, arg2) {
  status.success = { result ->
    println 'cool'
  }
  status.failure = { result ->
    println 'not cool'
  }
}
