windows::stream_handle

Typedef for the typical usage of a stream-oriented handle.

typedef basic_stream_handle stream_handle;

Name	Description
rebind_executor	Rebinds the handle type to another executor.
executor_type	The type of the executor associated with the object.
lowest_layer_type	An overlapped_handle is always the lowest layer.
native_handle_type	The native representation of a handle.

Name	Description
assign	Assign an existing native handle to the handle.
async_read_some	Start an asynchronous read.
async_write_some	Start an asynchronous write.
basic_stream_handle [constructor]	Construct a stream handle without opening it. — Construct a stream handle on an existing native handle. — Move-construct a stream handle from another. — Move-construct a stream handle from a handle of another executor type.
cancel	Cancel all asynchronous operations associated with the handle.
close	Close the handle.
get_executor	Get the executor associated with the object.
is_open	Determine whether the handle is open.
lowest_layer	Get a reference to the lowest layer. — Get a const reference to the lowest layer.
native_handle	Get the native handle representation.
operator=	Move-assign a stream handle from another. — Move-assign a stream handle from a handle of another executor type.
read_some	Read some data from the handle.
release	Release ownership of the underlying native handle.
write_some	Write some data to the handle.

The windows::basic_stream_handle class provides asynchronous and blocking stream-oriented handle functionality.
