[heading Examples] A free function as a write token: void write_handler( const boost::system::error_code& ec, std::size_t bytes_transferred) { ... } A write token function object: struct write_handler { ... void operator()( const boost::system::error_code& ec, std::size_t bytes_transferred) { ... } ... }; A lambda as a write token: socket.async_write_some(..., [](const boost::system::error_code& ec, std::size_t bytes_transferred) { ... }); A non-static class member function adapted to a write token using `std::bind()`: void my_class::write_handler( const boost::system::error_code& ec, std::size_t bytes_transferred) { ... } ... socket.async_write_some(..., std::bind(&my_class::write_handler, this, std::placeholders::_1, std::placeholders::_2)); A non-static class member function adapted to a write token using `boost::bind()`: void my_class::write_handler( const boost::system::error_code& ec, std::size_t bytes_transferred) { ... } ... socket.async_write_some(..., boost::bind(&my_class::write_handler, this, boost::asio::placeholders::error, boost::asio::placeholders::bytes_transferred)); Using [link boost_asio.reference.use_future use_future] as a write token: std::future f = socket.async_write_some(..., boost::asio::use_future); ... try { std::size_t n = f.get(); ... } catch (const system_error& e) { ... } Using [link boost_asio.reference.use_awaitable use_awaitable] as a write token: boost::asio::awaitable my_coroutine() { try { ... std::size_t n = co_await socket.async_write_some( ..., boost::asio::use_awaitable); ... } catch (const system_error& e) { ... } } [endsect]
