45<p>
46        An <span class="emphasis"><em>initiating function</em></span> is a function which may be called
47        to start an asynchronous operation. A <span class="emphasis"><em>completion handler</em></span>
48        is a function object that will be invoked, at most once, with the result
49        of the asynchronous operation.
50      </p>
51<p>
52        The lifecycle of an asynchronous operation is comprised of the following
53        events and phases:
54      </p>
55<p>
56        — Event 1: The asynchronous operation is started by a call to the initiating
57        function.
58      </p>
59<p>
60        — Phase 1: The asynchronous operation is now <span class="emphasis"><em>outstanding</em></span>.
61      </p>
62<p>
63        — Event 2: The externally observable side effects of the asynchronous operation,
64        if any, are fully established. The completion handler is submitted to an
65        executor.
66      </p>
67<p>
68        — Phase 2: The asynchronous operation is now <span class="emphasis"><em>completed</em></span>.
69      </p>
70<p>
71        — Event 3: The completion handler is called with the result of the asynchronous
72        operation.
73      </p>
74<p>
75        In this library, all functions with the prefix <code class="computeroutput">async_</code> are initiating
76        functions.

88      </p>
89<p>
90        — accept, as the final parameter, a <span class="emphasis"><em>completion token</em></span> object
91        <code class="computeroutput">token</code> of type <code class="computeroutput">CompletionToken</code>;

94        — specify a <span class="emphasis"><em>completion signature</em></span>, which is a call signature
95        (C++Std [func.def]) <code class="computeroutput">Signature</code> that determines the arguments
96        to the completion handler.
97      </p>
98<p>
99        An initiating function determines the type <code class="computeroutput">CompletionHandler</code>
100        of its completion handler function object by performing <code class="computeroutput">typename async_result&lt;decay_t&lt;CompletionToken&gt;,
101        Signature&gt;::completion_handler_type</code>. The completion handler object
102        <code class="computeroutput">completion_handler</code> is initialized with <code class="computeroutput">forward&lt;CompletionToken&gt;(token)</code>.
103        [<span class="emphasis"><em>Note:</em></span> No other requirements are placed on the type
104        <code class="computeroutput">CompletionToken</code>. —<span class="emphasis"><em>end note</em></span>]
105      </p>
106<p>
107        The type <code class="computeroutput">CompletionHandler</code> must satisfy the requirements of
108        <code class="computeroutput">Destructible</code> (C++Std [destructible]) and <code class="computeroutput">MoveConstructible</code>
109        (C++Std [moveconstructible]), and be callable with the specified call signature.
110      </p>
111<p>
112        In this library, all initiating functions specify a <span class="emphasis"><em>Completion
113        signature</em></span> element that defines the call signature <code class="computeroutput">Signature</code>.
114        The <span class="emphasis"><em>Completion signature</em></span> elements in this Technical
115        Specification have named parameters, and the results of an asynchronous operation
116        are specified in terms of these names.

126      </p>
127<p>
128        For the sake of exposition, this library sometimes annotates functions with
129        a return type <span class="emphasis"><em><code class="literal">DEDUCED</code></em></span>. For every
130        function declaration that returns <span class="emphasis"><em><code class="literal">DEDUCED</code></em></span>,
131        the meaning is equivalent to specifying the return type as <code class="computeroutput">typename
132        async_result&lt;decay_t&lt;CompletionToken&gt;, Signature&gt;::return_type</code>.

140        An initiating function produces its return type as follows:
141      </p>
142<p>
143        — constructing an object <code class="computeroutput">result</code> of type <code class="computeroutput">async_result&lt;decay_t&lt;CompletionToken&gt;,

146      </p>
147<p>
148        — using <code class="computeroutput">result.get()</code> as the operand of the return statement.
149      </p>
150<p>
151        [<span class="emphasis"><em>Example:</em></span> Given an asynchronous operation with <span class="emphasis"><em>Completion
152        signature</em></span> <code class="computeroutput">void(R1 r1, R2 r2)</code>, an initiating function

170        For convenience, initiating functions may be implemented using the <code class="computeroutput">async_completion</code>

382<p>
383        Every I/O executor type has an associated default completion token type.
384        This is specified via the <code class="computeroutput">default_completion_token</code> trait. This
385        trait may be used in asynchronous operation declarations as follows:
386      </p>
387<pre class="programlisting">template &lt;
388    typename IoObject,
389    typename CompletionToken =
390      typename default_completion_token&lt;
391        typename IoObject::executor_type
392      &gt;::type
393  &gt;
394auto async_xyz(
395    IoObject&amp; io_object,
396    CompletionToken&amp;&amp; token =
397      typename default_completion_token&lt;
398        typename IoObject::executor_type
399      &gt;::type{}
400  );
401</pre>
402<p>
403        If not specialised, this trait type is <code class="computeroutput">void</code>, meaning no default
404        completion token type is available for the given I/O executor.
405      </p>
406<p>
407        [<span class="emphasis"><em>Example:</em></span> The <code class="computeroutput">default_completion_token</code>
408        trait is specialised for the <code class="computeroutput">use_awaitable</code> completion token
409        so that it may be used as shown in the following example:
410      </p>
411<pre class="programlisting">auto socket = use_awaitable.as_default_on(tcp::socket(my_context));
412// ...
413co_await socket.async_connect(my_endpoint); // Defaults to use_awaitable.
414</pre>
415<p>
416        In this example, the type of the <code class="computeroutput">socket</code> object is transformed
417        from <code class="computeroutput">tcp::socket</code> to have an I/O executor with the default completion
418        token set to <code class="computeroutput">use_awaitable</code>.
419      </p>
420<p>
421        Alternatively, the socket type may be computed directly:
422      </p>
423<pre class="programlisting">using tcp_socket = use_awaitable_t&lt;&gt;::as_default_on_t&lt;tcp::socket&gt;;
424tcp_socket socket(my_context);
425// ...
426co_await socket.async_connect(my_endpoint); // Defaults to use_awaitable.
427</pre>
