thread_source

Boost C++ Libraries

thread_source

Abstract base class for a source of thread workers.

Description

Note that in Boost 1.54, and possibly later versions, asio::io_service on Windows appears to dislike being destructed during static data deinit, hence why this inherits from std::enable_shared_from_this<> in order that it may be reference count deleted before static data deinit occurs.

Synopsis

class thread_source
      : public std::enable_shared_from_this< thread_source >
{
  // ...
};
