Holds a buffer that cannot be modified.
class const_buffer
| Name | Description | 
|---|---|
| Construct an empty buffer. Construct a buffer to represent a given memory range. Construct a non-modifiable buffer from a modifiable one. | |
| Get a pointer to the beginning of the memory range. | |
| Move the start of the buffer by the specified number of bytes. | |
| Get the size of the memory range. | 
| Name | Description | 
|---|---|
| Create a new non-modifiable buffer that is offset from the start of another. | 
        The const_buffer
        class provides a safe representation of a buffer that cannot be modified.
        It does not own the underlying data, and so is cheap to copy or assign.
      
        The contents of a buffer may be accessed using the data() and
        size() member functions:
      
boost::asio::const_buffer b1 = ...; std::size_t s1 = b1.size(); const unsigned char* p1 = static_cast<const unsigned char*>(b1.data());
        The data() member function permits violations of type safety,
        so uses of it in application code should be carefully considered.
