websocket::stream::write (2 of 2 overloads)

Write a message to the stream.

Synopsis

template<
    class ConstBufferSequence>
std::size_t
write(
    ConstBufferSequence const& buffers,
    error_code& ec);

Description

This function is used to synchronously write a message to the stream. The call blocks until one of the following conditions is met:

The entire message is sent.
An error occurs.

This operation is implemented in terms of one or more calls to the next layer's write_some function.

The current setting of the websocket::stream::binary option controls whether the message opcode is set to text or binary. If the websocket::stream::auto_fragment option is set, the message will be split into one or more frames as necessary. The actual payload contents sent may be transformed as per the WebSocket protocol settings.

Parameters

Name	Description
`buffers`	The buffers containing the entire message payload. The implementation will make copies of this object as needed, but ownership of the underlying memory is not transferred. The caller is responsible for ensuring that the memory locations pointed to by buffers remains valid until the completion handler is called.

Return Value

The number of bytes written from the buffers. If an error occurred, this will be less than the sum of the buffer sizes.

Parameters

Name	Description
`ec`	Set to indicate what error occurred, if any.

Exceptions

Type	Thrown On
`system_error`	Thrown on failure.

Remarks

This function always sends an entire message. To send a message in fragments, use websocket::stream::write_some.
