Hi, I'm making a program that has a GUI and i was planning on using Asio because of it's SSL support, i thought it was just simple callback structure etc but then i got told that io_service::run() blocks? i understand that would be fine in server applications but in this case the GUI would block. How would any of you use asio in my situation?

I would run asio in another thread, and have it post messages to the GUI thread. -- Cory Nelson
