C++ Boost ASIO socket errors - c++

Question

I just installed CLion today on my new Linux environment and I decided to try to make a simple socket server. I eventually want to create a socket server in C++ (because I already made tons in C#, Java, Python, PHP, Node.js...).
I got the following code:
//
// Created by josh on 10-10-16.
//
#ifndef RANDOMPROGRAM_TEST_H
#define RANDOMPROGRAM_TEST_H
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/bind.hpp>
#include <boost/asio.hpp>
using namespace boost::asio::ip;
class test {
private:
boost::asio::io_service io_service;
tcp::acceptor acceptor;
tcp::socket socket;
test() {
this->acceptor = tcp::acceptor(this->io_service, tcp::endpoint(tcp::v4(), 30000));
this->socket = tcp::socket(io_service);
acceptor.async_accept(this->socket, boost::bind(&this->handle_accept, this, this->socket, NULL));
}
void handle_accept(tcp::socket* client, const boost::system::error_code& error) {
}
};
#endif //RANDOMPROGRAM_TEST_H
In my main .cpp file (which gets called when the program is executed):
#include "test.h"
int main() {
test t();
return 0;
}
Finally, my CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.6)
project(Randomshitprogram)
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=c++11")
find_package(Boost 1.62.0 COMPONENTS system filesystem REQUIRED)
if(Boost_FOUND)
message(STATUS "Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS: ${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS}")
message(STATUS "Boost_LIBRARIES: ${Boost_LIBRARIES}")
message(STATUS "Boost_VERSION: ${Boost_VERSION}")
include_directories(${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS})
endif()
set(SOURCE_FILES main.cpp test.h)
add_executable(Randomshitprogram ${SOURCE_FILES})
Now, when I try to execute the program, it gives the following error, together with possibly a ton of errors:
No matching function for call to ‘boost::asio::basic_socket_acceptor<boost::asio::ip::tcp>::basic_socket_acceptor()’

when I try to execute
you mean compile, right? That's a compile error, not a runtime one.
No matching function for call to 'boost::asio::basic_socket_acceptor<boost::asio::ip::tcp>::basic_socket_acceptor()'
The constructor for boost::asio::basic_socket_acceptor is documented here. There is no default constructor, which is what your compiler is telling you.
You're invoking (or trying to) the default constructor here:
test() /* here */ {
this->acceptor = tcp::acceptor(this->io_service, tcp::endpoint(tcp::v4(), 30000));
this->socket = tcp::socket(io_service);
acceptor.async_accept(this->socket, boost::bind(&this->handle_accept, this, this->socket, NULL));
}
where there is no initializer list. Any data members of test must be constructed before the body of your constructor.
Your constructor should look something like this:
test()
: acceptor(io_service, tcp::endpoint(tcp::v4(), 30000))
, socket(io_service)
{
acceptor.async_accept(socket, boost::bind(&this->handle_accept, this, this->socket, NULL));
}
