Igor, thanks for your patience.
You are right, the piece of code I posted does not block the thread. May
be it's better going back to the test I posted at first:
Server server;
server.acceptAsyncOnThread(port);
Client client;
TcpSessionPtr connection = client.connect(host, port);
bool accepted = false;
boost::timer timer;
while (!accepted && timer.elapsed() < 1.0)
{
accepted = server.accepted();
}
Here the Server class derives from TcpSocket and the
acceptAsyncOnThread() basically calls the code I posted in the prevoius
email including the thread. The server.accepted() returns true if the
callback of the accept_async is called (and it works correctly indeed).
The process is blocked by a loop with a timer (as you can see from the
code). I would be glad if you could find the error in that code.
