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.
