Creating a simple TCP server based on examples but still do not get how to create a socket that would read some amount of bytes and if there will not be enough would wait. I need this to be NOT asynchronous operation.
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/asio.hpp>
#ifdef _WIN32
#include "Windows.h"
#endif
using namespace boost::asio::ip;
using namespace std;
int main(){
int m_nPort = 12345;
boost::asio::io_service io_service;
tcp::acceptor acceptor(io_service, tcp::endpoint(tcp::v4(), m_nPort));
cout << "Waiting for connection..." << endl;
tcp::socket socket(io_service);
acceptor.accept(socket);
cout << "connection accepted" << endl;
try
{
socket.send(boost::asio::buffer("Start sending me data\r\n"));
}
catch(exception &e)
{
cerr << e.what() << endl; //"The parameter is incorrect" exception
}
}
How to receive 10000 bytes and do it either until all 10000 arrive OR 1000 millisecond timeout and throw an exception?
