Synchronous client topic

Use Smb2Client, the blocking client each worker runs, from an isolate of your own.

The synchronous client

Smb2Client is the client each worker runs. Every call blocks until the server answers, so use it from an isolate of your own.

final summary = await Isolate.run(() {
  final client = Smb2Client()
    ..connect(host: 'nas.local', share: 'Music', user: 'alice', password: 'secret');
  try {
    final entries = client.listDirectory('');
    return '${entries.length} entries, ${client.maxReadSize} B per read';
  } finally {
    client.disconnect();
  }
});

It has the pool's methods, without the Futures and the cancel tokens: openFile, readFromHandle, writeToHandle, closeHandle and so on, plus readFileChunked and writeFileChunked over iterables. Smb2Client.listShares is static and needs no connection. A client dropped without disconnect() frees its connection when it is garbage collected, without a logoff.
