ClientManager::create_client_id identifies an instance; the request ID passed to send identifies an operation. Updates use request ID 0, so application requests must use nonzero IDs. Route by client first, then distinguish updates from responses.
A new instance emits no updates until its first request; simply creating it and waiting does not initialize it.
Send concurrently, receive consistently
Sending can occur from different threads, but receive must not run simultaneously on multiple threads. A timeout can return an empty object. Apply nonempty responses and updates in order. Synchronous execution is only for explicitly supported methods.
Resource-management recommendations
Give the receive loop and closure process clear ownership. Queue requests from UI actions. On closure, settle pending waiters and prevent stale callbacks from writing to destroyed screens. Log callbacks must not reenter TDLib.
The pinned header retains the older Client interface for compatibility. Choose one interface style consistently and consult the source for complete signatures and lifecycle comments.
