Re: [Boost-users] [asio][chrono] using steady_timer portably

Hello,

There's some use of asio::steady_timer in my code (1.51):

asio::steady_timer timer_; //....... timer_.expires_from_now(boost::chrono::milliseconds(100)); //......

However, the above appears to be non-portable, as under c++11 steady_timer uses std::chrono, while boost::chrono doesn't seem to "forward" its types to std::chrono. I know I can use asio::basic_waitable_timerboost::chrono::steady_clock explicitly,

Agreed. I think there is a problem on the ASIO interface for steady_timer as it changes depending on the context.

but maybe there's some more straightforward solution (eg. boost::chrono configuration)?

I don't understand what do you mean. Could you elaborate? Best, Vicente
