How do I pass in a callback to async_read? I tried the following but it won't
compile. I based this off of modifying code from the docs
#include <beast/core.hpp>
#include <beast/http.hpp>
#include <beast/version.hpp>
#include <boost/asio.hpp>
#include <beast/websocket.hpp>
#include <boost/bind.hpp>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
using tcp = boost::asio::ip::tcp;
namespace http = beast::http;
namespace websocket = beast::websocket;
beast::multi_buffer buffer_;
void read_handler(
const boost::system::error_code& ec,
std::size_t bytes_transferred) {
std::cout << "READ" << std::endl;
std::cout << beast::buffers(buffer_.data()) << std::endl;
if(ec) {
std::cout << "error in read " << ec.message() << std::endl;
}
}
int main() {
boost::asio::io_service ios;
tcp::socket sock{ios};
beast::error_code ec;
websocket::stream<tcp::socket&> ws{sock};
beast::multi_buffer buffer;
ws.async_read(buffer_, boost::bind(&read_handler,
boost::asio::placeholders::error,
boost::asio::placeholders::bytes_transferred
));
return 0;
}

I made that said change of not using boost::bind and it works for me. Also i used boost/beast instead of just beast
#include <boost/beast/core.hpp>
#include <boost/beast/http.hpp>
#include <boost/beast/version.hpp>
#include <boost/asio.hpp>
#include <boost/beast/websocket.hpp>
#include <boost/bind.hpp>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <unistd.h>
using tcp = boost::asio::ip::tcp;
namespace http = boost::beast::http;
namespace websocket = boost::beast::websocket;
boost::beast::multi_buffer buffer_;
void read_handler(
const boost::system::error_code& ec,
std::size_t bytes_transferred) {
std::cout << "READ" << std::endl;
std::cout << boost::beast::buffers(buffer_.data()) << std::endl;
if(ec) {
std::cout << "error in read " << ec.message() << std::endl;
}
}
int main() {
boost::asio::io_service ios;
tcp::socket sock{ios};
boost::beast::error_code ec;
websocket::stream<tcp::socket&> ws{sock};
boost::beast::multi_buffer buffer;
ws.async_read(buffer_, &read_handler);
// ws.async_read(buffer_, boost::bind(&read_handler,
// boost::asio::placeholders::error,
// boost::asio::placeholders::bytes_transferred
// ));
return 0;
}
This compiles for me using below
$ g++ -std=gnu++11 -I/usr/include -I/usr/local/include test.cpp -L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/lib -L/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ -lboost_system -lpthread
I was not able to generate executable because of linker error, but that I assume you can easily take care of
Edit-1: Steps to get Boost with Beast
I tested these steps using Vagrant bento/ubuntu-16.04 box.
sudo apt update
sudo apt install -y g++ gcc make
wget https://dl.bintray.com/boostorg/release/1.65.1/source/boost_1_65_1.tar.gz
tar xf boost_1_65_1.tar.gz
cd boost_1_65_1/
sh bootstrap.sh
pushd libs
mv asio asio.old
git clone https://github.com/boostorg/asio asio
git clone https://github.com/boostorg/beast.git
popd
./b2 cxxflags="-std=c++11"
./b2 cxxflags="-std=c++11" headers
sudo ./b2 cxxflags="-std=c++11" install
This should give boost with beast and asio added
