The generic::stream_protocol
class contains flags
necessary for stream-oriented sockets of any address family and protocol.
Constructing using a native address family and socket protocol:
stream_protocol p(AF_INET, IPPROTO_TCP);
Constructing from a specific protocol type:
stream_protocol p(boost::asio::ip::tcp::v4());
Distinct objects: Safe.
Shared objects: Safe.
