Structured Networking in Cpp - Dietmar Kühl - CppCon 2022
github.com/Cpp...
As part of standardization, a proposal for Structured Concurrency (wg21.link/p2300) will be discussed. The proposed components are a bit abstract, and it requires some explanation of how things fit together. This presentation will discuss and demonstrate the implementation of a simple networking application using sender/receivers. In particular, the presentation will show:
- How to build asynchronous tasks using senders/receivers.
- How cancellation is integrated.
- Some aspects of the underlying implementation.
- Highlights of the proposed standard's positive properties.

It's just an idea, no proposal yet, etc. but still - WHAT AN IDEA and PRESENTATION.
I do think NVIDIA's P2300 is going to get standardised - at least much of it - and bringing Networking to work with Senders/Receivers is a key thing. This takes advantage of the work on Asynchrony, Coroutines, locking, stop_*, Executors in general, etc. and adds something much needed to the game, such as Networking.
"Geniale Idee, gä?" haha
Looking forward to seeing more of this👌🏽

Danke/Thanks Dieter! I'm going through this talk now. Are there trust-worthy reference implementations available (e.g. for RHEL/Linux/CMake) somewhere?

Great talk!
