Or does bind take care of this? I keep the buffer around whenever I use the asynchronous sending methods in Boost Asio as this is explicitly stated in the documentation, but is this case the same?

Actually, bind forces a copy of all parameters. So yes, you're cool. If you ever want to actually pass something per reference into bind you have to use boost::ref or boost::cref respectively. Cheers, Stephan
