/**
 * @class ACE_SOCK_Stream
 *
 * @brief Defines the methods in the <ACE_SOCK_Stream> abstraction.
 *
 * This adds additional wrapper methods atop the <ACE_SOCK_IO>
 * class.
 *
 * <buf> is the buffer to write from or receive into.
 * <len> is the number of bytes to transfer.
 * The <timeout> parameter in the following methods indicates how
 * long to blocking trying to transfer data.  If <timeout> == 0,
 * then the call behaves as a normal send/recv call, i.e., for
 * blocking sockets, the call will block until action is possible;
 * for non-blocking sockets, EWOULDBLOCK will be returned if no
 * action is immediately possible.
 * If <timeout> != 0, the call will wait for data to arrive no longer
 * than the relative time specified in *<timeout>.
 * The "_n()" I/O methods keep looping until all the data has been
 * transferred.  These methods also work for sockets in non-blocking
 * mode i.e., they keep looping on EWOULDBLOCK.  <timeout> is used
 * to make sure we keep making progress, i.e., the same timeout
 * value is used for every I/O operation in the loop and the timeout
 * is not counted down.
 * The return values for the "*_n()" methods match the return values
 * from the non "_n()" methods and are specified as follows:
 * - On complete transfer, the number of bytes transferred is returned.
 * - On timeout, -1 is returned, errno == ETIME.
 * - On error, -1 is returned, errno is set to appropriate error.
 * - On EOF, 0 is returned, errno is irrelevant.
 *
 * On partial transfers, i.e., if any data is transferred before
 * timeout/error/EOF, <bytes_transferred> will contain the number of
 * bytes transferred.
 * Methods with <iovec> parameter are I/O vector variants of the I/O
 * operations.
 * Methods with the extra <flags> argument will always result in
 * <send> getting called. Methods without the extra <flags> argument
 * will result in <send> getting called on Win32 platforms, and
 * <write> getting called on non-Win32 platforms.
