basic_socket_acceptor::accept (14 of 16 overloads)

Accept a new connection.

template<
    typename ExecutionContext>
Protocol::socket::template rebind_executor< typename ExecutionContext::executor_type >::other accept(
    ExecutionContext & context,
    endpoint_type & peer_endpoint,
    typename enable_if< is_convertible< ExecutionContext &, execution_context & >::value >::type *  = 0);

This function is used to accept a new connection from a peer. The function call will block until a new connection has been accepted successfully or an error occurs.

This overload requires that the Protocol template parameter satisfy the AcceptableProtocol type requirements.

Parameters

context: The I/O execution context object to be used for the newly accepted socket.
peer_endpoint: An endpoint object into which the endpoint of the remote peer will be written.

Return Value

A socket object representing the newly accepted connection.

Exceptions

asio::system_error: Thrown on failure.

Example

asio::ip::tcp::acceptor acceptor(my_context);
...
asio::ip::tcp::endpoint endpoint;
asio::ip::tcp::socket socket(
    acceptor.accept(my_context2, endpoint));
