I am designing a viewer that communicates via the network some actions, like playback, scrubbing, etc. I decided to code it with boost::asio, but I am too unfamiliar with it and the examples did not help much. What I need is the following: - server starts a group - one client connects to server - server and client do several handshake transmissions to sync (same movie file, etc). - client or server perform a playback or a seek to certain frame and the other (client or server) follows. Can someone suggest what should I use and what steps to take in draft form? Currently I have two threads one for the server and one for the client but lack knowledge of the asio api on how to perform a handshake (a send/receive pair, basically).
I too am attempting to use ASIO for the first time. I found these two books to be helpful. http://www.amazon.com/Introduction-Boost-Libraries-Volume-II/dp/9491028022/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=ZFS0JBNKV13R&coliid=I2HL5WFEL44V0E http://www.amazon.com/The-Boost-Libraries-Boris-Sch%C3%A4ling/dp/0982219199/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=ZFS0JBNKV13R&coliid=I1CEP87GIG10IJ And this link. http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_51_0/doc/html/boost_asio/reference.html SGL steven.lemay@igt.com -----Original Message----- From: boost-users-bounces@lists.boost.org [mailto:boost-users-bounces@lists.boost.org] On Behalf Of Gonzalo Garramuno Sent: Thursday, November 08, 2012 3:08 PM To: boost-users@lists.boost.org Subject: [Boost-users] Boost::Asio help for viewer I am designing a viewer that communicates via the network some actions, like playback, scrubbing, etc. I decided to code it with boost::asio, but I am too unfamiliar with it and the examples did not help much.

If you can get ahold of Michael Caisse boostcon presentation it's the best intro to the library I've seen. It used to be here -- http://blip.tv/boostcon/michael-caisse-an-asio-based-flash-xml-server-419035... But I know there are copies about from people that listen on this list... Jeff
