C++ Coroutines Advanced: Converting std:future to asio:awaitable

July 15, 2025 · 696 words · 4 min In modern C++ development, coroutines have brought revolutionary changes to asynchronous programming. However, when using boost::asio or standalone asio, we often encounter scenarios where we need to convert traditional std::future<T> to asio::awaitable<T> . This article will detail an efficient, thread-safe conversion method.

A Mental Model for C++ Coroutine

C++ coroutine is not a library that is ready to go (e.g. std::vector ). It is not even a trait (think of Rust’s Future trait) that library writers or users can implement (or the compiler generates for you in the case of Rust). C++ coroutine is a specification that defines a set of customization points that library writers implement in order to get a functional coroutine. A function supports two operations - call and return . A coroutine (in any language) is a generalization of a function. It su

The year 2025 is a big one for both Jaws and Back to the Future. The Steven Spielberg shark classic celebrates its 50th anniversary, while the Robert Zemeckis time travel classic celebrates its 40th anniversary. It’s a big reason why each has been top of mind in recent weeks, and that celebration is carrying right into San Diego Comic-Con.

Francis Ford Coppola’s ‘Megalopolis’ Is Returning to Theaters, in a Truly Mega Way

Russell T Davies Is Remaining Vague About the Future of ‘Doctor Who’

As Doctor Who‘s ongoing future remains in flux (no, not that flux), fans remain waiting to hear for any sign that news on the security of that future is on the way. Well, in its latest development, there’s good news and bad news: but in the middle of that is the fact that all of this still remains so vague that you’re free to take it however you want. Writing in the latest issue of Doctor Who Magazine in his monthly production column (via Cultbox), showrunner Russell T Davies confirmed that he

Amazon expects to reduce corporate jobs due to AI

In Brief Amazon CEO Andy Jassy is betting that generative AI will change how the company thinks about its workforce in the future. Jassy said that as the company continues to roll out more AI agents, and thus change how the company’s work is done, he expects Amazon will reduce the number of corporate jobs needed in the future, according to a memo that was first covered by CNBC. “We will need fewer people doing some of the jobs that are being done today, and more people doing other types of jo

Switch, Xbox, and the portable future of games

The Switch 2 is a hit (and a supply chain success story). Microsoft is starting to show off its plan for the future of Xbox. And everywhere you look, there are reasons to think we’re headed toward a very different kind of gaming device. Maybe it’ll be even more modular and portable. Maybe it’ll be even more like a Windows PC. Maybe it’ll be all that a bunch of other things besides.

Metal Detectorist Discovers Potential 2,000-Year-Old Divination Spoon

If you had to imagine an object that could tell the future, you’d probably envision a crystal ball or a deck of Tarot cards—not a utensil. Nevertheless, experts on the Isle of Man have revealed an artifact that might be exactly that: a divination spoon. A metal detectorist has unearthed an ancient bronze spoon that Iron Age people may have used to forecast the future approximately 2,000 years ago. While this is the 28th potential “divination spoon” known to scholars worldwide, it’s the first to

Trump’s Pick for NASA Chief Hints at Expected Shift Toward Mars

If Jared Isaacman becomes NASA’s administrator, as he’s likely to do, the agency will prioritize Mars over the Moon under the Trump administration, judging by some of his first public comments on the matter. Jared Isaacman has been active on social media since Trump named him as his choice to become the U.S. space agency’s next administrator, which he did in early December. But the astronaut mostly stuck to posting about flying planes, his payments company Shift4, and retweeting images of space
