#### basic_datagram_socket::linger

Inherited from socket_base.

Socket option to specify whether the socket lingers on close if unsent data is present.

    typedef implementation_defined linger;

Implements the SOL_SOCKET/SO_LINGER socket option.

###### Examples

Setting the option:

    asio::ip::tcp::socket socket(my_context);
    ...
    asio::socket_base::linger option(true, 30);
    socket.set_option(option);

Getting the current option value:

    asio::ip::tcp::socket socket(my_context);
    ...
    asio::socket_base::linger option;
    socket.get_option(option);
    bool is_set = option.enabled();
    unsigned short timeout = option.timeout();
