test::basic_stream::read_some (1 of 2 overloads)

Read some data from the stream.

Synopsis
template<
    class MutableBufferSequence>
std::size_t
read_some(
    MutableBufferSequence const& buffers);
Description

This function is used to read data from the stream. The function call will block until one or more bytes of data has been read successfully, or until an error occurs.

Parameters

Name

Description

buffers

The buffers into which the data will be read.

Return Value

The number of bytes read.

Exceptions

Type

Thrown On

boost::system::system_error

Thrown on failure.

Remarks

The read_some operation may not read all of the requested number of bytes. Consider using the function net::read if you need to ensure that the requested amount of data is read before the blocking operation completes.
