cobalt op c++ boost - Posted on Apr 13, 2024 - See https://www.boost.org/libs/cobalt - Logs Home - d0014
using tcp_acceptor = cobalt::use_op_t::as_default_on_t<tcp::acceptor>; using tcp_socket = cobalt::use_op_t::as_default_on_t<tcp::socket>;
====>
template <typename T> using as_default_on_t = typename T::template rebind_executor< executor_with_default<typename T::executor_type> >::other;
(rebind_executor is used to replace existed executor with another
executor of a type.)
====>
// Adapts an executor to add the @c use_op_t completion token as the default. template <typename InnerExecutor> struct executor_with_default : InnerExecutor { // Specify @c use_op_t as the default completion token type. typedef use_op_t default_completion_token_type; ... };
So I think boost::cobalt::use_op_t::as_default_on_t
is used to replace executor in a type with another executor, to let that type
support boost::cobalt coroutine, by adding cobalt::op
to the type; but I am not sure my inference.
So after all, then, the key issue is, what is cobalt op?
I didn't quite understand what cobalt op is. I read the boost::cobalt example
example/delay.cpp
when I learned cobalt at the first time, because that example is very short
and simple.

The cobalt::use_op is passed, I did not quite care it at first time. But after I learned more, I found I have to understand it before using boost::asio networking with boost::cobalt.
But the documentation of cobalt op I found is only helpful for me with one sentence:
An operation in cobalt is an awaitable wrapping an asio operation.
(https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/master/libs/cobalt/doc/html/index.html#cobalt_operation)
Then I opened the source code boost/cobalt/op.hpp,
got boost::cobalt::op, boost::cobalt::use_op_t,
boost::cobalt::use_op .
template< typename WaitToken = default_completion_token_t<executor_type>> auto async_wait( WaitToken && token = default_completion_token_t< executor_type >() );
The completion token that will be used to produce a completion handler, which
will be called when the timer expires. Potential completion tokens include
use_future, use_awaitable,
yield_context, or a function object with the correct
completion signature.
A completion token object that causes an asynchronous operation to return a future.
constexpr use_future_t use_future;
(https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_84_0/doc/html/boost_asio/reference/use_future.html)
eg.
std::future<std::size_t> my_future = my_socket.async_read_some(my_buffer, boost::asio::use_future);
A completion token object that represents the currently executing coroutine.
constexpr use_awaitable_t use_awaitable;
(https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_84_0/doc/html/boost_asio/reference/use_awaitable.html)
eg.
std::size_t n = co_await my_socket.async_read_some(buffer, use_awaitable);
??? = co_await ???(???, use_awaitable);
nice, -:)
If the completion token is cobalt::use_op, what do you think what it is?

At last I write some cobalt op c++ small crappy examples.
boost::asio::ip::tcp::socket
#include <boost/cobalt.hpp> #include <boost/asio.hpp> namespace cobalt = boost::cobalt; namespace asio = boost::asio; using asio_socket = asio::ip::tcp::socket; using cobalt_asio_socket = cobalt::use_op_t::as_default_on_t<asio_socket>; cobalt::main co_main(int argc, char * argv[]) { asio::io_context io_context; asio_socket socket{io_context}; cobalt_asio_socket socket2{io_context}; auto * buff = new char[80]; //co_await socket.async_read_some(asio::buffer(buff, 80)); // ERROR! auto value = co_await socket2.async_read_some(asio::buffer(buff, 80)); // OK! static_assert(std::integral<decltype(value)>); delete [] buff; co_return 0; }
Returned value is the data read in bytes.
