posix::stream_descriptor

Typedef for the typical usage of a stream-oriented descriptor.

typedef basic_stream_descriptor stream_descriptor;

Name	Description
bytes_readable	IO control command to get the amount of data that can be read without blocking.
implementation_type	The underlying implementation type of I/O object.
lowest_layer_type	A basic_descriptor is always the lowest layer.
native_type	The native representation of a descriptor.
non_blocking_io	IO control command to set the blocking mode of the descriptor.
service_type	The type of the service that will be used to provide I/O operations.

Name	Description
assign	Assign an existing native descriptor to the descriptor.
async_read_some	Start an asynchronous read.
async_write_some	Start an asynchronous write.
basic_stream_descriptor	Construct a basic_stream_descriptor without opening it. Construct a basic_stream_descriptor on an existing native descriptor.
cancel	Cancel all asynchronous operations associated with the descriptor.
close	Close the descriptor.
get_io_service	Get the io_service associated with the object.
io_control	Perform an IO control command on the descriptor.
io_service	(Deprecated: use get_io_service().) Get the io_service associated with the object.
is_open	Determine whether the descriptor is open.
lowest_layer	Get a reference to the lowest layer. Get a const reference to the lowest layer.
native	Get the native descriptor representation.
read_some	Read some data from the descriptor.
write_some	Write some data to the descriptor.
