Question about Timeouts. #163

Open SethHamilton opened 6 years ago

https://github.com/eidheim/Simple-Web-Server/blob/b9d4be229f41e3eda72394451d479f5245d2a600/server_http.hpp#L233

Does this associate the timer with connection so it gets cancelled automatically when the connection is closed?

eidheim commented 6 years ago

The timers are not associated with sockets, but all the async operation handlers start with calling the Connection::cancel_timeout()-function. See for instance https://github.com/eidheim/Simple-Web-Server/blob/b9d4be229f41e3eda72394451d479f5245d2a600/server_http.hpp#L423. In the event of a connection close, one of these handlers will be called with an error code ec set.
