boost::asio::basic_raw_socket< Protocol, RawSocketService >::BOOST_ASIO_INITFN_RESULT_TYPE	(	WriteHandler	,
		void(boost::system::error_code, std::size_t)
	)		const

Start an asynchronous send on a connected socket.

This function is used to send data on the raw socket. The function call will block until the data has been sent successfully or an error occurs.

Parameters

buffers

One or more data buffers to be sent on the socket. Although the buffers object may be copied as necessary, ownership of the underlying memory blocks is retained by the caller, which must guarantee that they remain valid until the handler is called.

handler

The handler to be called when the send operation completes. Copies will be made of the handler as required. The function signature of the handler must be: void handler( const boost::system::error_code& error, // Result of operation. std::size_t bytes_transferred // Number of bytes sent. ); Regardless of whether the asynchronous operation completes immediately or not, the handler will not be invoked from within this function. Invocation of the handler will be performed in a manner equivalent to using boost::asio::io_service::post().

Note

The async_send operation can only be used with a connected socket. Use the async_send_to function to send data on an unconnected raw socket.

Example

To send a single data buffer use the boost::asio::buffer function as follows:

socket.async_send(boost::asio::buffer(data, size), handler);

See the boost::asio::buffer documentation for information on sending multiple buffers in one go, and how to use it with arrays, boost::array or std::vector.

void boost::asio::basic_socket< Protocol, RawSocketService >::cancel ( )

inlineinherited

Cancel all asynchronous operations associated with the socket.

This function causes all outstanding asynchronous connect, send and receive operations to finish immediately, and the handlers for cancelled operations will be passed the boost::asio::error::operation_aborted error.

Exceptions

boost::system::system_error

Thrown on failure.

Note

Calls to cancel() will always fail with boost::asio::error::operation_not_supported when run on Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and earlier versions of Windows, unless BOOST_ASIO_ENABLE_CANCELIO is defined. However, the CancelIo function has two issues that should be considered before enabling its use:

• It will only cancel asynchronous operations that were initiated in the current thread.

• It can appear to complete without error, but the request to cancel the unfinished operations may be silently ignored by the operating system. Whether it works or not seems to depend on the drivers that are installed.

For portable cancellation, consider using one of the following alternatives:

• Disable asio's I/O completion port backend by defining BOOST_ASIO_DISABLE_IOCP.

• Use the close() function to simultaneously cancel the outstanding operations and close the socket.

When running on Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, and later, the CancelIoEx function is always used. This function does not have the problems described above.

native_handle_type boost::asio::basic_socket< Protocol, RawSocketService >::native_handle ( )

This function may be used to obtain the underlying representation of the socket. This is intended to allow access to native socket functionality that is not otherwise provided.

bool boost::asio::basic_socket< Protocol, RawSocketService >::native_non_blocking ( ) const

inlineinherited

Gets the non-blocking mode of the native socket implementation.

This function is used to retrieve the non-blocking mode of the underlying native socket. This mode has no effect on the behaviour of the socket object's synchronous operations.

Returns

true if the underlying socket is in non-blocking mode and direct system calls may fail with boost::asio::error::would_block (or the equivalent system error).

Note

The current non-blocking mode is cached by the socket object. Consequently, the return value may be incorrect if the non-blocking mode was set directly on the native socket.

Example

This function is intended to allow the encapsulation of arbitrary non-blocking system calls as asynchronous operations, in a way that is transparent to the user of the socket object. The following example illustrates how Linux's sendfile system call might be encapsulated:

 template <typename Handler>
struct sendfile_op
{
  tcp::socket& sock_;
  int fd_;
  Handler handler_;
  off_t offset_;
  std::size_t total_bytes_transferred_;

  // Function call operator meeting WriteHandler requirements.
  // Used as the handler for the async_write_some operation.
  void operator()(boost::system::error_code ec, std::size_t)
  {
    // Put the underlying socket into non-blocking mode.
    if (!ec)
      if (!sock_.native_non_blocking())
        sock_.native_non_blocking(true, ec);

    if (!ec)

        // Try the system call.
        errno = 0;
        int n = ::sendfile(sock_.native_handle(), fd_, &offset_, 65536);
        ec = boost::system::error_code(n < 0 ? errno : 0,
            boost::asio::error::get_system_category());
        total_bytes_transferred_ += ec ? 0 : n;

        // Retry operation immediately if interrupted by signal.
        if (ec == boost::asio::error::interrupted)
          continue;

        // Check if we need to run the operation again.

          sock_.async_write_some(boost::asio::null_buffers(), *this);
          return;
        }

        if (ec || n == 0)
        {
          // An error occurred, or we have reached the end of the file.
          // Either way we must exit the loop so we can call the handler.
          break;

} 

void boost::asio::basic_socket< Protocol, RawSocketService >::native_non_blocking ( bool  mode )

inlineinherited

Sets the non-blocking mode of the native socket implementation.

This function is used to modify the non-blocking mode of the underlying native socket. It has no effect on the behaviour of the socket object's synchronous operations.

Parameters

mode	If true, the underlying socket is put into non-blocking mode and direct system calls may fail with boost::asio::error::would_block (or the equivalent system error).

Exceptions

boost::system::system_error

Thrown on failure. If the mode is false, but the current value of non_blocking() is true, this function fails with boost::asio::error::invalid_argument, as the combination does not make sense.

Example

This function is intended to allow the encapsulation of arbitrary non-blocking system calls as asynchronous operations, in a way that is transparent to the user of the socket object. The following example illustrates how Linux's sendfile system call might be encapsulated:

std::size_t boost::asio::basic_raw_socket< Protocol, RawSocketService >::send ( const ConstBufferSequence &  buffers, socket_base::message_flags  flags  )

inline

Send some data on a connected socket.

This function is used to send data on the raw socket. The function call will block until the data has been sent successfully or an error occurs.

Parameters

buffers	One ore more data buffers to be sent on the socket.
flags	Flags specifying how the send call is to be made.

Returns

The number of bytes sent.

Exceptions

boost::system::system_error

Thrown on failure.

Note

The send operation can only be used with a connected socket. Use the send_to function to send data on an unconnected raw socket.

std::size_t boost::asio::basic_raw_socket< Protocol, RawSocketService >::send_to ( const ConstBufferSequence &  buffers, const endpoint_type &  destination  )

inline

Send raw data to the specified endpoint.

This function is used to send raw data to the specified remote endpoint. The function call will block until the data has been sent successfully or an error occurs.

Parameters

buffers	One or more data buffers to be sent to the remote endpoint.
destination	The remote endpoint to which the data will be sent.

Returns

The number of bytes sent.

Exceptions

boost::system::system_error

Thrown on failure.

Example

To send a single data buffer use the boost::asio::buffer function as follows:

boost::asio::ip::udp::endpoint destination(
    boost::asio::ip::address::from_string("1.2.3.4"), 12345);
socket.send_to(boost::asio::buffer(data, size), destination);

See the boost::asio::buffer documentation for information on sending multiple buffers in one go, and how to use it with arrays, boost::array or std::vector.
