115        The <code class="computeroutput">spawn()</code> function is a high-level wrapper over the Boost.Coroutine
116        library. This function enables programs to implement asynchronous logic in
117        a synchronous manner, as illustrated by the following example:
118      </p>
119<pre class="programlisting">boost::asio::spawn(my_strand, do_echo);
120
121// ...
122
123void do_echo(boost::asio::yield_context yield)
124{
125  try
126  {
127    char data[128];
128    for (;;)
129    {
130      std::size_t length =
131        my_socket.async_read_some(
132          boost::asio::buffer(data), yield);
133
134      boost::asio::async_write(my_socket,
135          boost::asio::buffer(data, length), yield);
136    }
