[section:CompletionHandler Completion handler requirements]

A completion handler must meet the requirements for a [link
boost_asio.reference.Handler handler]. A value `h` of a completion handler
class should work correctly in the expression `h()`.

[heading Examples]

A free function as a completion handler:

  void completion_handler()
  {
    ...
  }

A completion handler function object:

  struct completion_handler
  {
    ...
    void operator()()
    {
      ...
    }
    ...
  };

A non-static class member function adapted to a completion handler using
`bind()`:

  void my_class::completion_handler()
  {
    ...
  }
  ...
  my_io_service.post(boost::bind(&my_class::completion_handler, this));
