windows::basic_stream_handle::release (1 of 2 overloads)

Inherited from windows::basic_overlapped_handle.

Release ownership of the underlying native handle.

native_handle_type release();

This function causes all outstanding asynchronous operations to finish immediately, and the handlers for cancelled operations will be passed the asio::error::operation_aborted error. Ownership of the native handle is then transferred to the caller.

Exceptions

asio::system_error

Thrown on failure.

Remarks

This function is unsupported on Windows versions prior to Windows 8.1, and will fail with asio::error::operation_not_supported on these platforms.
