    1.10 + * Advanced buffer implementation.
    1.11 + * 
    1.12 + * Instances of UcxBuffer can be used to read from or to write to like one
    1.13 + * would do with a stream. This allows the use of ucx_stream_copy() to copy
    1.14 + * contents from one buffer to another.
    1.15 + * 
    1.16 + * Some features for convenient use of the buffer
    1.17 + * can be enabled. See the documentation of the macro constants for more
    1.18 + * information.
