6679	[asio] request : repeat timer	Akira Takahashi <faithandbrave@…>	chris_kohlhoff	"This ticket is feature request.
I want repeat feature in deadline_timer/waitable_timer.
Many libraries timer have repeat features.
follow code is example.


before:
{{{
void on_timer(error_code error, steady_timer& timer)
{
    if (error)
        return;

    timer.expires_from_now(seconds(1));
    timer.async_wait(boost::bind(&on_timer, _1, boost::ref(timer)));
}

int main()
{
    ...
    timer.expires_from_now(seconds(1));
    timer.async_wait(boost::bind(&on_timer, _1, boost::ref(timer)));
}
}}}

after:
{{{
void on_timer(error_code error, steady_timer& timer)
{
    if (error)
        return;

    // no boiler plate
}

int main()
{
    ...
    timer.expires_from_now(seconds(1), steady_timer::repeat);
    timer.async_wait(boost::bind(&on_timer, _1, boost::ref(timer)));
}
