[section:ReadToken Read token requirements]

A read token is a [link boost_asio.overview.model.completion_tokens completion token]
for completion signature `void(error_code, size_t)`.

[heading Examples]

A free function as a read token:

  void read_handler(
      const boost::system::error_code& ec,
      std::size_t bytes_transferred)
  {
    ...
  }

A read token function object:

  struct read_handler
  {
    ...
    void operator()(
        const boost::system::error_code& ec,
        std::size_t bytes_transferred)
    {
      ...
    }
    ...
  };

A lambda as a read token:

  socket.async_read_some(...,
      [](const boost::system::error_code& ec,
        std::size_t bytes_transferred)
      {
        ...
      });

A non-static class member function adapted to a read token using
`std::bind()`:

  void my_class::read_handler(
      const boost::system::error_code& ec,
      std::size_t bytes_transferred)
  {
    ...
  }
  ...
  socket.async_read_some(...,
      std::bind(&my_class::read_handler,
        this, std::placeholders::_1,
        std::placeholders::_2));

A non-static class member function adapted to a read token using
`boost::bind()`:

  void my_class::read_handler(
      const boost::system::error_code& ec,
      std::size_t bytes_transferred)
  {
    ...
  }
  ...
  socket.async_read_some(...,
      boost::bind(&my_class::read_handler,
        this, boost::asio::placeholders::error,
        boost::asio::placeholders::bytes_transferred));

Using [link boost_asio.reference.use_future use_future] as a read token:

  std::future<std::size_t> f =
    socket.async_read_some(..., boost::asio::use_future);
  ...
  try
  {
    std::size_t n = f.get();
    ...
  }
  catch (const system_error& e)
  {
    ...
  }

Using [link boost_asio.reference.use_awaitable use_awaitable] as a read token:

  boost::asio::awaitable<void> my_coroutine()
  {
    try
    {
      ...
      std::size_t n =
        co_await socket.async_read_some(
            ..., boost::asio::use_awaitable);
      ...
    }
    catch (const system_error& e)
    {
      ...
    }
  }
