Member Functions

Name

Description

assign

async_write_some

Start an asynchronous write.

basic_stream_descriptor

Construct a stream descriptor without opening it.

Construct a stream descriptor on an existing native descriptor.

Move-construct a stream descriptor from another.

cancel

Cancel all asynchronous operations associated with the descriptor.

close

non_blocking

Gets the non-blocking mode of the descriptor.

Sets the non-blocking mode of the descriptor.

operator=

Move-assign a stream descriptor from another.

read_some

Read some data from the descriptor.

release

Release ownership of the native descriptor implementation.
