Hello all -<br>  I am using the boost::asio library to do serial I/O
with simple Linux serial port(s) like /dev/ttyS0. I have found out how
this works, and it is a very impressive library (I will offer a small
example program so that you might include it for other users of ASIO
serial ports once I&#39;ve got it cleaned up).<br>

<br>  However, in addition to using boost::asio, I am using the
boost::statechart library as the controller (FSM) for a project. I have
managed to get the serial port working with the boost::asio library.
Now, my problem is that I have an io_service defined and initialized in
my statechart FSM. Is there some way to cast or otherwise use the
io_service that I have therein into a serial_port? In other words, I
would rather not have to put the serial port handling code in the FSM
(I&#39;d rather &#39;refer&#39; to it using the io_service if it is possible).<br>

<br>Thanks for your help!<br>Dave
