ASIO Daytime.3 example misuses enable_shared_from_this

[m_albert137@…]

In the documentation for the ASIO library, the Daytime.3 example has class tcp_connection inheriting from enable_shared_from_this, but then in "tcp_connection::create()" we have

return pointer( new tcp_connection....)

where pointer is a typedef for the shared_ptr type.

Perhaps:

return (new tcp_connection...).shared_from_this()

?

By the way, thanks for all the wonderful software!

Replying to m_albert137@…:

Perhaps:

return (new tcp_connection...).shared_from_this()

?

That's illegal. shared_from_this only works after you've created the initial shared_ptr.

My apologies.... I missed that point.

Also, it makes sense that the c'tor is private and the factory forces the construction of the shared pointer.

Thank you.
