35/// Provides waitable timer functionality.
36/**
37 * The basic_deadline_timer class template provides the ability to perform a
38 * blocking or asynchronous wait for a timer to expire.
39 *
40 * A deadline timer is always in one of two states: "expired" or "not expired".
41 * If the wait() or async_wait() function is called on an expired timer, the
42 * wait operation will complete immediately.
43 *
44 * Most applications will use the boost::asio::deadline_timer typedef.
45 *
46 * @par Thread Safety
47 * @e Distinct @e objects: Safe.@n
48 * @e Shared @e objects: Unsafe.
49 *
50 * @par Examples
51 * Performing a blocking wait:
52 * @code
53 * // Construct a timer without setting an expiry time.
54 * boost::asio::deadline_timer timer(io_service);
55 *
56 * // Set an expiry time relative to now.
57 * timer.expires_from_now(boost::posix_time::seconds(5));
58 *
59 * // Wait for the timer to expire.
60 * timer.wait();
61 * @endcode
62 *
63 * @par
64 * Performing an asynchronous wait:
65 * @code
66 * void handler(const boost::system::error_code& error)
67 * {
68 * if (!error)
69 * {
70 * // Timer expired.
71 * }
72 * }
73 *
74 * ...
75 *
76 * // Construct a timer with an absolute expiry time.
77 * boost::asio::deadline_timer timer(io_service,
78 * boost::posix_time::time_from_string("2005-12-07 23:59:59.000"));
79 *
80 * // Start an asynchronous wait.
81 * timer.async_wait(handler);
82 * @endcode
83 *
84 * @par Changing an active deadline_timer's expiry time
85 *
86 * Changing the expiry time of a timer while there are pending asynchronous
87 * waits causes those wait operations to be cancelled. To ensure that the action
88 * associated with the timer is performed only once, use something like this:
89 * used:
90 *
91 * @code
92 * void on_some_event()
93 * {
94 * if (my_timer.expires_from_now(seconds(5)) > 0)
95 * {
96 * // We managed to cancel the timer. Start new asynchronous wait.
97 * my_timer.async_wait(on_timeout);
98 * }
99 * else
100 * {
101 * // Too late, timer has already expired!
102 * }
103 * }
104 *
105 * void on_timeout(const boost::system::error_code& e)
106 * {
107 * if (e != boost::asio::error::operation_aborted)
108 * {
109 * // Timer was not cancelled, take necessary action.
110 * }
111 * }
112 * @endcode
113 *
114 * @li The boost::asio::basic_deadline_timer::expires_from_now() function
115 * cancels any pending asynchronous waits, and returns the number of
116 * asynchronous waits that were cancelled. If it returns 0 then you were too
117 * late and the wait handler has already been executed, or will soon be
118 * executed. If it returns 1 then the wait handler was successfully cancelled.
119 *
120 * @li If a wait handler is cancelled, the boost::system::error_code passed to
121 * it contains the value boost::asio::error::operation_aborted.
