Start an asynchronous wait on the timer.

template<
    typename WaitHandler = DEFAULT>
DEDUCED async_wait(
    WaitHandler && handler = DEFAULT);

This function may be used to initiate an asynchronous wait against the timer. It always returns immediately.

For each call to async_wait(), the supplied handler will be called exactly once. The handler will be called when:

Parameters

handler

The handler to be called when the timer expires. Copies will be made of the handler as required. The function signature of the handler must be:

void handler(

This asynchronous operation supports cancellation for the following cancellation_type values:
