Accept a new connection.
Protocol::socket accept( boost::asio::io_context & io_context, endpoint_type & peer_endpoint);
This function is used to accept a new connection from a peer. The function call will block until a new connection has been accepted successfully or an error occurs.
This overload requires that the Protocol template parameter satisfy the AcceptableProtocol type requirements.
The io_context
object to be used for the newly accepted socket.
An endpoint object into which the endpoint of the remote peer will be written.
A socket object representing the newly accepted connection.
Thrown on failure.
boost::asio::ip::tcp::acceptor acceptor(io_context); ... boost::asio::ip::tcp::endpoint endpoint; boost::asio::ip::tcp::socket socket( acceptor.accept(io_context2, endpoint));
