Zachary's example does it. You can also use the shared_ptr do it locally in
the function by passing the deleter function.
Or you just write your io_worker_thread() so:
void io_worker_thread()
{
#      if(WIN32)
        struct com_init
        {
             com_init() { CoInitializeEx(...); }
             ~com_init() { CoUninitialize(); }
        } initializer_object;
#      endif
       io_service.run();
}
That's it. ;)
