Method for cleanly quitting the server

[zaphoyd]

At minimum, catch SIGINT and close all connections/write logs cleanly. Consider how this might work on non-unix systems?

Hi, are there any plans for solving this issue?

It would be nice to have a way to stop a server without having to send a signal to the process; i.e., if the websocketpp server is part of a bigger process and runs in its own thread, it would be nice to be able to just stop() the server instance without affecting the other threads.

endpoint::stop_listening() can be used now to cleanly stop the server from accepting new connections. If you keep a list of all connections you can call close on them individually. Once all connections have been cleanly closed the server run method will exit normally.
