...one of the most highly
regarded and expertly designed C++ library projects in the
world.

Sets the non-blocking mode of the socket.
void non_blocking( bool mode);
If true
, the socket's synchronous operations will
fail with boost::asio::error::would_block
if they
are unable to perform the requested operation immediately. If
false
, synchronous operations will block until complete.
Thrown on failure.
The non-blocking mode has no effect on the behaviour of asynchronous
operations. Asynchronous operations will never fail with the error boost::asio::error::would_block
.
