Can you set SO_RCVTIMEO and SO_SNDTIMEO socket options in boost asio?

Question

Can you set SO_RCVTIMEO and SO_SNDTIMEO socket parameters in boost asio?

If so, how?

Note. I know that you can use timers instead, but I would like to know about these socket options in particular.

Answer 1

Absolutely! Boost ASIO allows you to access the source / reference data, which in this case is SOCKET itself. So let's say you have:

boost::asio::ip::tcp::socket my_socket;

, open bind - -, my_socket . , SOCKET, :

SOCKET native_sock = my_socket.native();
int result = SOCKET_ERROR;

if (INVALID_SOCKET != native_sock)
{
    result = setsockopt(native_sock, SOL_SOCKET, <the pertinent params you want to use>);
}

, ! Boost ASIO , , , - . .

Boost.Asio( Boost SVN), boost::asio::detail::socket_option, boost/asio/socket_base.hpp :

typedef boost::asio::detail::socket_option::timeval<SOL_SOCKET, SO_SNDTIMEO>
    send_timeout;
typedef boost::asio::detail::socket_option::timeval<SOL_SOCKET, SO_RCVTIMEO>
    receive_timeout;

(, timeval boost::asio::detail::socket_option, , .: -P)

: socket_option::timeval socket_option::integer:

// Helper template for implementing timeval options.
template <int Level, int Name>
class timeval
{
public:
  // Default constructor.
  timeval()
    : value_(zero_timeval())
  {
  }

  // Construct with a specific option value.
  explicit timeval(::timeval v)
    : value_(v)
  {
  }

  // Set the value of the timeval option.
  timeval& operator=(::timeval v)
  {
    value_ = v;
    return *this;
  }

  // Get the current value of the timeval option.
  ::timeval value() const
  {
    return value_;
  }

  // Get the level of the socket option.
  template <typename Protocol>
  int level(const Protocol&) const
  {
    return Level;
  }

  // Get the name of the socket option.
  template <typename Protocol>
  int name(const Protocol&) const
  {
    return Name;
  }

  // Get the address of the timeval data.
  template <typename Protocol>
  ::timeval* data(const Protocol&)
  {
    return &value_;
  }

  // Get the address of the timeval data.
  template <typename Protocol>
  const ::timeval* data(const Protocol&) const
  {
    return &value_;
  }

  // Get the size of the timeval data.
  template <typename Protocol>
  std::size_t size(const Protocol&) const
  {
    return sizeof(value_);

  // Set the size of the timeval data.
  template <typename Protocol>
  void resize(const Protocol&, std::size_t s)
  {
    if (s != sizeof(value_))
      throw std::length_error("timeval socket option resize");

    ::timeval result = {};
    return result;
  }

  ::timeval value_;

struct timeval tv = { 1, 0 };

ssize_t nsent = ::write(socket->native_handle(), buff, size);

} else if (errno != EAGAIN) {
  BOOST_LOG_TRIVIAL(info) <<  "Client " << ep << " error: " <<     strerror(errno);
}

- 1:

struct timeval tv = { 1, 0 };
setsockopt(socket.native_handle(), SOL_SOCKET, SO_RCVTIMEO, &tv, sizeof(tv));
