Hi

Why doesn't this work:

_socket = tcp::socket(ioService);

_socket is a private member of type tcp::socket.
How can I store the socket as a class member (so I can access it when
using read/write from other class methods)?

Also, is there any way to define a timeout on a synchronous connect()?
If not, what's the workaround? Can I do an async connect and then
somehow return to synchronous mode of operation?

Thanks,
David
