The asynchronous model presented in this section provides a basis for defining
|
|
higher level abstractions. Asio builds on this core model to provide additional
|
|
facilities, such as:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" type="disc">
|
|
<li class="listitem">
|
|
I/O objects such as <a class="link" href="../networking.html" title="Networking">sockets</a>
|
|
and <a class="link" href="../timers.html" title="Timers">timers</a> that expose
|
|
asynchronous operations on top of this model.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="listitem">
|
|
Concrete executors, such as the <a class="link" href="../../reference/io_context.html" title="io_context">io_context</a>
|
|
executor, <a class="link" href="../../reference/thread_pool.html" title="thread_pool">thread_pool</a>
|
|
executor, and the <a class="link" href="../../reference/strand.html" title="strand">strand</a>
|
|
adapter which guarantees non-concurrent execution of completion handlers.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="listitem">
|
|
Completion tokens that facilitate different composition mechanisms,
|
|
such as <a class="link" href="../composition/cpp20_coroutines.html" title="C++20 Coroutines Support">C++
|
|
coroutines</a>, <a class="link" href="../composition/spawn.html" title="Stackful Coroutines">stackful

coroutines</a>, <a class="link" href="../composition/futures.html" title="Futures">futures</a>,
|
|
and <a class="link" href="../../reference/deferred.html" title="deferred">deferred operations</a>.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="listitem">
|
|
High level support for C++ coroutines that combines support executors
|
|
and cancellation slots to allow for <a class="link" href="../composition/cpp20_coroutines.html#asio.overview.composition.cpp20_coroutines.co_ordinating_parallel_coroutines">easy
|
|
coordination of concurrent asynchronous agents</a>.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul></div>
|
|
<p>
|
|
To allow users to more easily write their own asynchronous operations that
|
|
adhere to this model, Asio also provides the helper function <a class="link" href="../../reference/async_compose.html" title="async_compose">async_compose</a>.
