    template<
        typename Protocol>
    class datagram_socket_service :
      public io_service::service

##### Types

Name | Description
--- | ---
endpoint_type | The endpoint type.
implementation_type | The type of a datagram socket.
native_type | The native socket type.
protocol_type | The protocol type.

##### Member Functions

Name | Description
--- | ---
assign | Assign an existing native socket to a datagram socket.
async_connect | Start an asynchronous connect.
async_receive | Start an asynchronous receive.
async_receive_from | Start an asynchronous receive that will get the endpoint of the sender.
