Re: [Boost-users] Transferring files across a network.

Here are the examples. I have tested them in Linux (debian, gcc-4.3.2) and Windows Vista (Visual Studio 2008) using the latest boost version. Feel free to use them. If you have any improvements, please let me know and feed back a copy to me. As I have said, I am new at this. I think it is an important and useful example. However I may be biased.

Yes, I am agree with your suggestion. Asio documentation should be updated. Several users are having good examples that can be added to documentation.

Thanks for that I forgot about it!

No problem! It might be that every commonly used C++ compiler has sizeof(boost::array) == sizeof(char[N]), but unless there's a guarantee I'm missing, I could see an odd compiler that pads or aligns in some strange fashion, causing rare and hard-to-diagnose errors. Definitely you're good with (boost::array).size() == sizeof(char[N]).

Thanks for the example code - it would be good to add it (and others) to the Asio docs.

Speaking of which, I know Chris K has been busy (or in poor health?) and mostly unavailable for a while - I wonder if he wouldn't mind granting someone edit access to the Asio source for documentation purposes (or minor bug fixes). There's been a wealth of knowledge shared through the Boost and Asio mail lists, such as serial IO examples and run / poll / work service explanations.
