Obviously Boost has a thread library, although I have not used it, and it has a callback mechanism in boost::function<> which I have used extensively, so designing an asynchronous I/O library around these two concepts seems like a good design to me.
I'd say coupling asynchronous I/O to multi-threading would be a mistake. It is at its most useful IMHO in single-threaded cases. -- Caleb Epstein caleb dot epstein at gmail dot com
