Stop the <a class="link" href="../io_context.html" title="io_context"><code class="computeroutput">io_context</code></a>

This function does not block, but instead simply signals the <a class="link" href="../io_context.html" title="io_context"><code class="computeroutput">io_context</code></a>
to stop. All invocations of its <code class="computeroutput">run()</code> or <code class="computeroutput">run_one()</code>
member functions should return as soon as possible. Subsequent calls to
<code class="computeroutput">run()</code>, <code class="computeroutput">run_one()</code>, <code class="computeroutput">poll()</code> or <code class="computeroutput">poll_one()</code>
will return immediately until <code class="computeroutput">restart()</code> is called.
