The <a class="link" href="mutable_buffer.html" title="mutable_buffer"><code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">mutable_buffer</span></code></a>
class provides a safe representation of a buffer that can be modified. It
does not own the underlying data, and so is cheap to copy or assign.

The <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">asio</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">buffer_cast</span></code> function permits violations
of type safety, so uses of it in application code should be carefully considered.
