This function is used to asynchronously write a certain number of bytes
of data to a random access device at a specified offset. The function call
always returns immediately. The asynchronous operation will continue until
one of the following conditions is true:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem">
All of the data in the supplied <a class="link" href="../basic_streambuf.html" title="basic_streambuf"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">basic_streambuf</span></code></a> has been written.
</li>
<li class="listitem">
The completion_condition function object returns 0.
</li>
</ul></div>
<p>
This operation is implemented in terms of zero or more calls to the device's
async_write_some_at function, and is known as a <span class="emphasis"><em>composed operation</em></span>.
The program must ensure that the device performs no <span class="emphasis"><em>overlapping</em></span>
write operations (such as async_write_at, the device's async_write_some_at
function, or any other composed operations that perform writes) until this
operation completes. Operations are overlapping if the regions defined
by their offsets, and the numbers of bytes to write, intersect.

<div class="variablelist">

A <a class="link" href="../basic_streambuf.html" title="basic_streambuf"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">basic_streambuf</span></code></a> object from

by the caller, which must guarantee that it remains valid until the

<p>
The function object to be called to determine whether the write operation
is complete. The signature of the function object must be:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="identifier">std</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">size_t</span> <span class="identifier">completion_condition</span><span class="special">(</span>

<span class="identifier">std</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">size_t</span> <span class="identifier">bytes_transferred</span>
<span class="special">);</span>
</pre>
<p>
A return value of 0 indicates that the write operation is complete.
A non-zero return value indicates the maximum number of bytes to
be written on the next call to the device's async_write_some_at function.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span class="term">handler</span></dt>
<dd>
<p>
The handler to be called when the write operation completes. Copies
will be made of the handler as required. The function signature of
the handler must be:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="keyword">void</span> <span class="identifier">handler</span><span class="special">(</span>
<span class="comment">// Result of operation.</span>
<span class="keyword">const</span> <span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">system</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">error_code</span><span class="special">&amp;</span> <span class="identifier">error</span><span class="special">,</span>

<span class="identifier">std</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">size_t</span> <span class="identifier">bytes_transferred</span>
<span class="special">);</span>
</pre>
<p>
Regardless of whether the asynchronous operation completes immediately
or not, the handler will not be invoked from within this function.
Invocation of the handler will be performed in a manner equivalent
to using <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">asio</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">io_service</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">post</span><span class="special">()</span></code>.
