The < code class = "computeroutput" > < span class = "identifier" > error< / span > < / code > parameter contains
the result of the asynchronous operation. Since we only provide the 1-byte
< code class = "computeroutput" > < span class = "identifier" > recv_buffer_< / span > < / code > to contain the
client's request, the < a class = "link" href = "../reference/io_context.html" title = "io_context" > io_context< / a >
object would return an error if the client sent anything larger. We can ignore
such an error if it comes up.

When initiating the asynchronous operation, and if using < a class = "link" href = "boost_bind.html" title = "boost::bind" > boost::bind< / a > ,
you must specify only the arguments that match the handler's parameter list.
In this program, both of the argument placeholders (asio::placeholders::error
and asio::placeholders::bytes_transferred) could potentially have been removed.
