Connect handler requirements

A connect handler must meet the requirements for a handler. A value h of a connect handler class should work correctly in the expression h(ec), where ec is an lvalue of type const error_code.

Examples

A free function as a connect handler:

void connect_handler(
    const boost::system::error_code& ec)
{
  ...
}

A connect handler function object:

struct connect_handler
{
  ...
  void operator()(
      const boost::system::error_code& ec)
  {
    ...
  }
  ...
};

A non-static class member function adapted to a connect handler using bind():

void my_class::connect_handler(
    const boost::system::error_code& ec)
{
  ...
}
...
socket.async_connect(...,
    boost::bind(&my_class::connect_handler,
      this, boost::asio::placeholders::error));
