Ha... possibly, yes.

<http://asio.sourceforge.net/boost-asio-proposal-0.3.6/libs/asio/doc/reference/deadline_timer_reset.html>

Basically if the timer was cancelled successfully, the timer's cancel() function returns non-zero and the handler is called with the operation_aborted error.

If you were too late to cancel the timer (e.g. it is already on the I/O completion port queue but not delivered) then cancel() returns 0, and when the handler is finally called it will have the success error code.

Sounds good.

Cheers, Chris
