59 This function is used to asynchronously read a complete message from a
60 stream into an instance of <a class="link" href="../boost__beast__http__message.html" title="http::message"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">http</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">message</span></code></a>. The function call always
61 returns immediately. The asynchronous operation will continue until one
62 of the following conditions is true:
64 <div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
66 The entire message is read in.
73 This operation is implemented in terms of zero or more calls to the next
74 layer's <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">async_read_some</span></code>
75 function, and is known as a <span class="emphasis"><em>composed operation</em></span>. The
76 program must ensure that the stream performs no other reads until this
77 operation completes. The implementation may read additional bytes from
78 the stream that lie past the end of the message being read. These additional
79 bytes are stored in the dynamic buffer, which must be preserved for subsequent
80 reads. If the end of file error is received while reading from the stream,
81 then the error returned from this function will be:
83 <div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
85 <a class="link" href="../boost__beast__http__error.html" title="http::error"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">http</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">end_of_stream</span></code></a>
86 if no bytes were parsed, or
89 <a class="link" href="../boost__beast__http__error.html" title="http::error"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">http</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">partial_message</span></code></a>
90 if any bytes were parsed but the message was incomplete, otherwise:
93 A successful result. The next attempt to read will return <a class="link" href="../boost__beast__http__error.html" title="http::error"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">http</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">end_of_stream</span></code></a>

100 <div class="informaltable"><table class="table">
121 <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">stream</span></code>
126 The stream from which the data is to be read. The type must meet
127 the <span class="emphasis"><em>AsyncReadStream</em></span> requirements.
134 <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">buffer</span></code>
139 Storage for additional bytes read by the implementation from
140 the stream. This is both an input and an output parameter; on
141 entry, the parser will be presented with any remaining data in
142 the dynamic buffer's readable bytes sequence first. The type
143 must meet the <span class="emphasis"><em>DynamicBuffer</em></span> requirements.
144 The object must remain valid at least until the handler is called;
145 ownership is not transferred.
152 <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">msg</span></code>
157 The container in which to store the message contents. This message
158 container should not have previous contents, otherwise the behavior
159 is undefined. The type must be meet the <span class="emphasis"><em>MoveAssignable</em></span>
160 and <span class="emphasis"><em>MoveConstructible</em></span> requirements. The
161 object must remain valid at least until the handler is called;
162 ownership is not transferred.
169 <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">handler</span></code>
174 The completion handler to invoke when the operation completes.
175 The implementation takes ownership of the handler by performing
176 a decay-copy. The equivalent function signature of the handler
179 <pre xmlns:rev="http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~gregod/boost/tools/doc/revision" class="table-programlisting"><span class="keyword">void</span> <span class="identifier">handler</span><span class="special">(</span>

181 <span class="identifier">std</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">size_t</span> <span class="identifier">bytes_transferred</span> <span class="comment">// the total number of bytes transferred from the stream</span>
182 <span class="special">);</span>
185 Regardless of whether the asynchronous operation completes immediately
186 or not, the handler will not be invoked from within this function.
187 Invocation of the handler will be performed in a manner equivalent
188 to using <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">net</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">post</span></code>.

199 The completion handler will receive as a parameter the total number of
200 bytes transferred from the stream. This may be zero for the case where
201 there is sufficient pre-existing message data in the dynamic buffer. The
