coros VS Boost.Asio

I tried to create a simple TCP server framework that uses coroutines. So, how it works is that when a read/write operation on a TCP socket blocks, the coroutine gets suspended. The underlying thread that is running the coroutine is then free to run other tasks, so this enables for concurrency with relatively few threads.

Indeed looks like it, strand_executor_service.hpp is using a Mutex internally (otherwise it wouldn't make sense to me).

as a side note, Asio is also released as an independent library without the boost stuff https://think-async.com/Asio/

Now that vinniefalco is going to kill off the asio standalone (see deprecate standalone ) and only support boost what would people then recommend to switch over to.

The ASIO framework can be found at https://think-async.com/Asio/ and the relevant license for its use is included in the GitHub repository in the Vendor/licenses directory.

The library is found at https://think-async.com/Asio/.

Asio Extracted from the much bigger Boost C++ library, it's apparently a really good networking library. As a bonus it also handles async / threads. Here's a really good video tutorial by OneLoneCoder

Here's the main contributor to Asio. I looked at Asio's repository and this was the first guy.
