universe@140 32 * Advanced buffer implementation.
universe@140 33 *
universe@140 34 * Instances of UcxBuffer can be used to read from or to write to like one
universe@140 35 * would do with a stream. This allows the use of ucx_stream_copy() to copy
universe@140 36 * contents from one buffer to another.
universe@140 37 *
universe@140 38 * Some features for convenient use of the buffer
universe@140 39 * can be enabled. See the documentation of the macro constants for more
universe@140 40 * information.
