In Asio, it's the reverse -- you pass it an appropriately constructed
socket to the call to acceptor::accept(...).

Look at the examples for more information on how to do it the
Boost.Asio and C++ way.

The documentation for Boost.Asio is here: http://www.boost.org/libs/asio

PS. The Boost.Asio way is very different from the Java way.
