Send some data on the socket.
template< typename ConstBufferSequence> std::size_t send( const ConstBufferSequence & buffers);
This function is used to send data on the stream socket. The function call will block until one or more bytes of the data has been sent successfully, or an until error occurs.
One or more data buffers to be sent on the socket.
The number of bytes sent.
Thrown on failure.
The send operation may not transmit all of the data to the peer. Consider
using the write
function if you need to ensure that all data is written before the blocking
operation completes.
To send a single data buffer use the buffer
function as follows:
socket.send(boost::asio::buffer(data, size));
See the buffer
documentation for information on sending multiple buffers in one go,
and how to use it with arrays, boost::array or std::vector.
