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