This function is used to write a certain number of bytes of data to a stream.
The call will block until one of the following conditions is true:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" 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 stream's
write_some function.

<div class="variablelist">

the SyncWriteStream concept.

<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>

<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 stream's write_some function.
