The function <a class="link" href="../reference/basic_datagram_socket/async_receive_from.html" title="basic_datagram_socket::async_receive_from">ip::udp::socket::async_receive_from()</a>
will cause the application to listen in the background for a new request.
When such a request is received, the <a class="link" href="../reference/io_service.html" title="io_service">io_service</a>
object will invoke the <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">handle_receive</span><span class="special">()</span></code> function with two arguments: a value of
type <a class="link" href="../reference/error_code.html" title="error_code">error_code</a> indicating
whether the operation succeeded or failed, and a <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">size_t</span></code>

the number of bytes received.

<p>
The <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">error</span></code> parameter contains
the result of the asynchronous operation. Since we only provide the 1-byte
<code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">recv_buffer_</span></code> to contain the
client's request, the <a class="link" href="../reference/io_service.html" title="io_service">io_service</a>
object would return an error if the client sent anything larger. We can ignore
such an error if it comes up.

<p>
When initiating the asynchronous operation, and if using <a class="link" href="boost_bind.html" title="boost::bind">boost::bind</a>
, you must specify only the arguments that match the handler's parameter
list. In this program, both of the argument placeholders (asio::placeholders::error
and asio::placeholders::bytes_transferred) could potentially have been removed.
</p>
<p>
Start listening for the next client request.
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"> <span class="identifier">start_receive</span><span class="special">();</span>
</pre>
<p>
Any further actions for this client request are now the responsibility of
<code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">handle_send</span><span class="special">()</span></code>.

been completed.
