<p>
This function is used to asynchronously read one or more bytes of data
from the stream. The function call always returns immediately.

<p>
The async_read_some operation may not read all of the requested number
of bytes. Consider using the <a class="link" href="../async_read.html" title="async_read"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">async_read</span></code></a> function if you need
to ensure that the requested amount of data is read before the asynchronous
operation completes.
