Detailed Description

Holds a buffer that can be modified.

The mutable_buffer class provides a safe representation of a buffer that can be modified. It does not own the underlying data, and so is cheap to copy or assign.

Accessing Buffer Contents

The contents of a buffer may be accessed using the boost::asio::buffer_size and boost::asio::buffer_cast functions:

 boost::asio::mutable_buffer b1 = ...;
std::size_t s1 = boost::asio::buffer_size(b1);
unsigned char* p1 = boost::asio::buffer_cast<unsigned char*>(b1);

The boost::asio::buffer_cast function permits violations of type safety, so uses of it in application code should be carefully considered.
