Hi

 

Its my first cpp application with boost libs, therefore im asking for some
help :

The code is written In VS2008 and looks like this :

 

 

include "stdafx.h"

#include <iostream>

#include <boost/asio.hpp>

#include <boost/asio/serial_port.hpp> 

#include <boost/thread.hpp>

#include <boost/system/error_code.hpp>

#include <boost/system/system_error.hpp>

#include <boost/bind.hpp>

 

 

void handler(  const boost::system::error_code& error)// Result of
operation.

                        //std::size_t bytes_transferred           // Number
of bytes read.

 

{

      std::cout << "read" << std::endl;

 

}

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])

{

 

      using namespace std;

      using namespace boost;

      char read_msg_[512];

      /* All programs that use asio need to have at least one
boost::asio::io_service object. */ 

      /* This class provides access to I/O functionality.
*/

      /* We declare an object of this type first thing in the main function.
*/

      boost::asio::io_service io; 

      asio::serial_port(io,"COM7");

 
boost::asio::serial_port::async_read_some(boost::asio::buffer(read_msg_,512)
,handler);

      return 0;

}

 

 

In line:

 
boost::asio::serial_port::async_read_some(boost::asio::buffer(read_msg_,512)
,handler);

 

Im getting compiler error

 : 1>c:\praca\visual\projekty\refernecje\refernecje\refernecje.cpp(32) :
error C2352: 'boost::asio::basic_serial_port<>::async_read_some' : illegal
call of non-static member function

1>                            c:\program
files\boost\boost_1_36_0\boost\asio\basic_serial_port.hpp(595) : see
declaration of 'boost::asio::basic_serial_port<>::async_read_some'

 

Can You please explain me what is wrong ? the code is similar to that
provided by boost serial port reading example.

 

Thx in advance for help
