 Hi

 I'm trying to duplicate accepted/opened socket and pass them to other
 process.
 It works fine under linux. But under Windows I can't assign
 this native socket to boost::asio::ip::tcp::socket.
 When I try to assign opened native socket to boost socket object
 s.assign(boost::asio::ip::tcp::v4(), socketDup)
 throws me exception: "The parameter is incorrect".
 Even if I try to duplicate socket and use them in the same process.
 I still got this exception.

 The line inside boost throws this exception:
 boost_1_45_0\boost\asio\detail\impl\win_iocp_io_service.ipp:

 {{{
 boost::system::error_code win_iocp_io_service::register_handle(
     HANDLE handle, boost::system::error_code& ec)
 {
   if (::CreateIoCompletionPort(handle, iocp_.handle, 0, 0) == 0)
 //this function failed
   {
     DWORD last_error = ::GetLastError();
     ec = boost::system::error_code(last_error,
         boost::asio::error::get_system_category());
   }
   else
   {
     ec = boost::system::error_code();
   }
   return ec;
 }

 }}}

 I'm using: VC++ 2008 / Win7

 What am I doing wrong?
 How can I resolve this problem?
 Thanks for help.




 Example code:



 {{{
 boost::asio::io_service io_service;
 tcp::acceptor acceptor(io_service, tcp::endpoint(tcp::v4(), m_nPort));

 std::cout << "Waiting for connection..." << std::endl;

 tcp::socket socket(io_service);
 acceptor.accept(socket);
 std::cout << "connection accepted" << std::endl;

 #ifdef _WIN32
 WSAPROTOCOL_INFO pi;
 WSADuplicateSocket(socket.native(), get_current_process_id(), &pi);
 SOCKET socketDup = WSASocket(pi.iAddressFamily/*AF_INET*/,
 pi.iSocketType/*SOCK_STREAM*/,
 pi.iProtocol/*IPPROTO_TCP*/, &pi, 0, 0);
 char sText[] = "I can use my duplicated socket via WinApi!\r\n";
 int nRet = send(socketDup, sText, strlen(sText), 0);
 #else
         //linux
         int socketDup = dup(socket.native());
 #endif

 try
 {
         tcp::socket s(io_service);
         s.assign(boost::asio::ip::tcp::v4(), socketDup); //this throws
 exception under Windows
         //I can't use my socket via boost lib
         s.send(boost::asio::buffer("Not work\r\n"));
 }
 catch(std::exception &e)
 {
         std::cerr << e.what() << std::endl; //"The parameter is incorrect"
 exception
 }
 }}}
