          Boost.Asio provides timers based on the std::chrono
          facilities via the basic_waitable_timer
          class template. The typedefs system_timer,
          steady_timer and
          high_resolution_timer
          utilise the standard clocks system_clock,
          steady_clock and high_resolution_clock respectively.
        
          Support for the std::chrono facilities is automatically enabled
          for g++ 4.6 and later, when the -std=c++0x
          or -std=gnu++0x compiler options are used. (Note that,
          for g++, the draft-standard monotonic_clock
          is used in place of steady_clock.)
          Support may be disabled by defining BOOST_ASIO_DISABLE_STD_CHRONO,
          or explicitly enabled for other compilers by defining BOOST_ASIO_HAS_STD_CHRONO.
        
          When standard chrono is
          unavailable, Boost.Asio will otherwise use the Boost.Chrono library. The
          basic_waitable_timer
          class template may be used with either.
