Please tell what is the purpose of boost::asio::io-service ios .I am New to the boost Libraries and I'm doing one Open Source project in that already used these asio service in a way of passing asio service in object. like "link l(ios, some other arguments) "
Inspect the class "link", and you'll see why it needs this io_service. Maybe it passes io_service to constructors of some other asio objects?
My big question is at what sart of time this asio::io-service are most useful and required.
"The io_service class provides the core I/O functionality for users of the asynchronous I/O objects" http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_48_0/doc/html/boost_asio/reference/io_servic...
