Strange exception throw - assign: Operation not permitted

Question

I want to do asynchronous read from cin therefore I have a piece of code

client.h

...
boost::asio::posix::stream_descriptor input;
boost::asio::stre         


        

Answer 1

Can you try with this minimal reproducer? It works on my Ubuntu 64-bit box:

#include 
#include 

#include 

int main()
{
    using namespace boost::asio;

    io_service io;
    posix::stream_descriptor input(io);

    input.assign(STDIN_FILENO);
    streambuf input_buffer;

    std::function loop = [&] {
        async_read_until(input, input_buffer, '\n', [&](boost::system::error_code ec, size_t) {
            if (ec) 
                std::cerr << ec.message();
            else {
                std::cout << "LOOP: '" << &input_buffer << "'\n";
                loop();
            }
        });
    };

    loop();
    io.run();
}

Update I think I can reproduce the problem on Coliru: can you check the output of ulimit -a?
