About Boost.Detail

This library contains a set of header only utilities used internally by Boost C++ Libraries to facilitate their implementation.

int main()
{
    net::io_context ioc;
    tcp::resolver resolver(ioc);
    beast::tcp_stream stream(ioc);

    stream.connect(resolver.resolve("example.com", "80"));

    http::request<http::empty_body> req{http::verb::get, "/", 11};
    req.set(http::field::host, "example.com");

    http::write(stream, req);

    beast::flat_buffer buffer;
    http::response<http::string_body> res;
    http::read(stream, buffer, res);

    std::cout << res << std::endl;
}
