    32  * \brief Advanced buffer implementation.
    33  *
    34  * Instances of CxBuffer can be used to read from or to write to like one
    35  * would do with a stream.
    36  *
    37  * Some features for convenient use of the buffer
    38  * can be enabled. See the documentation of the macro constants for more
    39  * information.
