Added new spawn() overloads that conform to the requirements for
asynchronous operations. These overloads also support cancellation. When
targeting C++11 and later these functions are implemented in terms of
Boost.Context directly.
The existing overloads have been retained but are deprecated.
The completion_signature_of trait (and corresponding type alias
completion_signature_of_t) may be used to determine the completion
signature of an asynchronous operation. For example:
auto d = my_timer.async_wait(asio::deferred);
using sig = asio::completion_signature_of<decltype(d)>::type;
// sig is void(error_code)
or with a handcrafted asynchronous operation:
struct my_async_op
{
asio::ip::tcp::socket& socket_ = ...;
template <typename Token>
auto operator()(asio::const_buffer data, Token&& token)
{
return asio::async_write(socket_, data,
std::forward<Token>(token));
}
};
using sig =
asio::completion_signature_of<
my_async_op, asio::const_buffer>::type;
// sig is void(error_code, size_t)
The is_async_operation trait may be used to determine if a function
object, and optional arguments, may be called to initiate an
asynchronous operation. For example, when using asio::deferred
auto d = my_timer.async_wait(asio::deferred);
static_assert(asio::is_async_operation<decltype(d)>::value);
or with a handcrafted asynchronous operation:
struct my_async_op
{
asio::ip::tcp::socket& socket_ = ...;
template <typename Token>
auto operator()(asio::const_buffer data, Token&& token)
{
return asio::async_write(socket_, data,
std::forward<Token>(token));
}
};
static_assert(
asio::is_async_operation<
my_async_op, asio::const_buffer>::value);
This is no longer an experimental facility. The names deferred and
deferred_t have been temporarily retained as deprecated entities under
the asio::experimental namespace, for backwards compatibility.
This is no longer an experimental facility. The names prepend and
prepend_t have been temporarily retained as deprecated entities under
the asio::experimental namespace, for backwards compatibility.
This is no longer an experimental facility. The names append and
append_t have been temporarily retained as deprecated entities under
