You want to use the steady_timer. It's also known as a monotonic timer. It
is not effected by the system time.

From 1.49.0 release notes: "ASIO : Added a new class template basic_waitable_timer based around the C++11 clock type requirements. It may be used with the clocks from the C++11 <chrono> library facility or, if those are not available, Boost.Chrono. The typedefs high_resolution_timer, steady_timer and system_timer may be used to create timer objects for the standard clock types".
I haven't yet looked into these facilities much - I only want to know if I can use any one or more of these facilities to create a periodic interval timer that could call my callback after every, say, 10 milliseconds. Has this been incorporated? Someone in an earlier thread said that ASIO deadline timer could be used but that doesn't work if system clock gets modified by the code itself. I look forward to receiving your feedback on this. -Asif _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users
