Copies a limited number of bytes from a source buffer to a target buffer.

std::size_t buffer_copy(
    const mutable_buffer & target,
    const mutable_buffers_1 & source,
    std::size_t max_bytes_to_copy);
Parameters

target

A modifiable buffer representing the memory region to which the bytes will be copied.

source

A modifiable buffer representing the memory region from which the bytes will be copied. The contents of the source buffer will not be modified.

max_bytes_to_copy

The maximum number of bytes to be copied.

Return Value

The number of bytes copied.

Remarks

The number of bytes copied is the lesser of:

This function is implemented in terms of memcpy, and consequently it cannot be used to copy between overlapping memory regions.
