     Type:  Bugs                   |      Status:  new           
Milestone:  To Be Determined       |   Component:  asio          
  Version:  Boost 1.49.0           |    Severity:  Problem       
 Keywords:                         |  
-----------------------------------+----------------------------------------
 In the documentation for the ASIO library, the Daytime.3
 example has class tcp_connection inheriting from
 enable_shared_from_this, but then in "tcp_connection::create()"
 we have
    return pointer( new tcp_connection....)
 where pointer is a typedef for the shared_ptr type.

 Perhaps:
     return (new tcp_connection...).shared_from_this()
 ?

 By the way, thanks for all the wonderful software!
