Overview
Explore the intricacies of building an Asio-based Flash XML server in this comprehensive CppNow conference talk. Dive into the world of reactive systems and learn how to implement them efficiently using the Boost.Asio library framework. Discover techniques for handling asynchronous resources, including networking, serial port I/O, and timers. Follow along as the speaker constructs a server that routes data streams between serial I/O hardware components and TCP-connected Flash displays. Gain insights into utilizing Qi parsers and Karma generators for creating and manipulating Abstract Syntax Trees (ASTs). Master the implementation of various Boost libraries, including Asio, Spirit, Fusion, Phoenix, Smart_ptr, Thread, Function, and Bind, to develop a robust server capable of streaming data and processing requests from a Flash XMLSocket. Walk away with a solid understanding of the Asio model and practical implementation patterns for creating your own Asio-based servers.
