D'oh! Sorry, I'm super lame - have to init the io_service object BEFORE you pass it to the acceptor! Change the order of declaration in the class and no seg-fault! :) On 16 July 2010 11:16, Steve Lorimer <steve.lorimer@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi folks, I have the following class:
using namespace boost::asio;
// basic tcp server class server { boost::thread thread; ip::tcp::acceptor acceptor; io_service io_svc;
// tcp_srv_conn object which will become the local end-point of the next incoming connection tcp_srv_conn_p new_conn;
void loop(unsigned short port); void on_accept(const boost::system::error_code &err);
public: server(); virtual ~server();
void serve(unsigned short port); void serve(const std::string &svc); void close(); };
and the constructor for server looks like this:
server::server() : acceptor(io_svc), new_conn(new tcp_srv_conn(io_svc)) { }
If I create a server object on the stack:
server s;
I get a segmentation fault deep inside the asio internals (something to do with a mutex), originating from initialising acceptor with my io_service object: acceptor(io_svc)
Here is a stack trace of the core file: Marked in red is (#6) my server constructor and (#7) the basic_socket_acceptor constructor

Am I doing something stupid? How should I be creating my io_service and acceptor objects?
TIA Steve
