32/// Provides waitable timer functionality.
33/**
34 * The basic_waitable_timer class template provides the ability to perform a
35 * blocking or asynchronous wait for a timer to expire.
36 *
37 * A waitable timer is always in one of two states: "expired" or "not expired".
38 * If the wait() or async_wait() function is called on an expired timer, the
39 * wait operation will complete immediately.
40 *
41 * Most applications will use one of the boost::asio::steady_timer,
42 * boost::asio::system_timer or boost::asio::high_resolution_timer typedefs.
43 *
44 * @note This waitable timer functionality is for use with the C++11 standard
45 * library's @c &lt;chrono&gt; facility, or with the Boost.Chrono library.
46 *
47 * @par Thread Safety
48 * @e Distinct @e objects: Safe.@n
49 * @e Shared @e objects: Unsafe.
50 *
51 * @par Examples
52 * Performing a blocking wait (C++11):
53 * @code
54 * // Construct a timer without setting an expiry time.
55 * boost::asio::steady_timer timer(io_service);
56 *
57 * // Set an expiry time relative to now.
58 * timer.expires_from_now(std::chrono::seconds(5));
59 *
60 * // Wait for the timer to expire.
61 * timer.wait();
62 * @endcode
63 *
64 * @par
65 * Performing an asynchronous wait (C++11):
66 * @code
67 * void handler(const boost::system::error_code& error)
68 * {
69 * if (!error)
70 * {
71 * // Timer expired.
72 * }
73 * }
74 *
75 * ...
76 *
77 * // Construct a timer with an absolute expiry time.
78 * boost::asio::steady_timer timer(io_service,
79 * std::chrono::steady_clock::now() + std::chrono::seconds(60));
80 *
81 * // Start an asynchronous wait.
82 * timer.async_wait(handler);
83 * @endcode
84 *
85 * @par Changing an active waitable timer's expiry time
86 *
87 * Changing the expiry time of a timer while there are pending asynchronous
88 * waits causes those wait operations to be cancelled. To ensure that the action
89 * associated with the timer is performed only once, use something like this:
90 * used:
91 *
92 * @code
93 * void on_some_event()
94 * {
95 * if (my_timer.expires_from_now(seconds(5)) > 0)
96 * {
97 * // We managed to cancel the timer. Start new asynchronous wait.
98 * my_timer.async_wait(on_timeout);
99 * }
100 * else
101 * {
102 * // Too late, timer has already expired!
103 * }
104 * }
105 *
106 * void on_timeout(const boost::system::error_code& e)
107 * {
108 * if (e != boost::asio::error::operation_aborted)
109 * {
110 * // Timer was not cancelled, take necessary action.
111 * }
112 * }
113 * @endcode
114 *
115 * @li The boost::asio::basic_waitable_timer::expires_from_now() function
116 * cancels any pending asynchronous waits, and returns the number of
117 * asynchronous waits that were cancelled. If it returns 0 then you were too
118 * late and the wait handler has already been executed, or will soon be
119 * executed. If it returns 1 then the wait handler was successfully cancelled.
120 *
121 * @li If a wait handler is cancelled, the boost::system::error_code passed to
122 * it contains the value boost::asio::error::operation_aborted.
