MountURLAsync is the same as MountURLSync except it does the mount asynchronously.

The MountURLAsyncCompleted event is run after the mount with an array of POSIX mountpoint paths.

You can call Cancel method to cancel a pending mount request.

Some examples using this method:

• /MacOSX/NetFS Mount

NetFSMountMBS.MountURLSync(URL as String, MountPath as String = "", User as String = "", Password as String = "", OpenOptions as Dictionary = nil, MountOptions as Dictionary = nil, byref MountPoints() as String) as Integer

Given a URL that refers to a file server, connect to that server and mount stuff.

If the URL just specifies a server and you can't just mount the "root directory" of the server, the user will be prompted with a window to let them select one or more items to mount from that server, otherwise whatever item the URL specifies to mount will be mounted.
If the mountpath is provided it will be used as the mount point. If the mountpath is set to "", a default mount point will be used.
If the user and passwd are set, they will override any user name or password that may be set in the URL. These calls go through the NetAuth agent. If the URL doesn't specify a password, and one is needed, the user will be prompted with a window requesting password.
Options can be provided for the session open and the mount itself. If the mount is successful, the POSIX path to each mountpoint is returned as a string in mountpoints.
If the return value is zero the mount has succeeded.

A positive non-zero return value represents an errno value (see /usr/include/sys/errno.h). For instance, a missing mountpoint error will be returned as ENOENT (2).

A negative non-zero return value represents an OSStatus error. For instance, error -128 is userCanceledErr, returned when a mount operation is canceled by the user.
