Re: [Boost-users] Asio sockets - non-blocking read

You can use tcp::socket::available() http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/doc/html/boost_asio/reference/basic_str... or: boost::asio::socket_base::bytes_readable command(true); socket.io_control(command); std::size_t bytes_readable = command.get(); 2008/7/10, Jean-Sebastien Stoezel :

Hi,

Is there a way to read from a synchronous TCP socket without blocking the calling thread? Like using a time out, or checking how many bytes are present on the socket before reading?

Thanks, Jean
