## Detailed Description

This class is a factory for starting off asynchronous writes on a file. This class forwards all methods to its implementation class.

Once {open} is called, multiple asynchronous {write}s can be started using this class. A ACE_Asynch_Write_File::Result will be passed back to the {handler} when the asynchronous writes completes through the {ACE_Handler::handle_write_file} callback. This class differs slightly from ACE_Asynch_Write_Stream as it allows the user to specify an offset for the write.

## Member Function Documentation

ACE_Asynch_Operation_Impl * ACE_Asynch_Write_File::implementation | ( | void |  | ) | const`[virtual]`

| Return the underlying implementation class. Reimplemented from ACE_Asynch_Write_Stream.

int ACE_Asynch_Write_File::open | ( | ACE_Handler & | handler,
|  | ACE_HANDLE | handle = `ACE_INVALID_HANDLE`,
|  | const void * | completion_key = `0`,
|  | ACE_Proactor * | proactor = `0`
| ) |

| Initializes the factory with information which will be used with each asynchronous call. If ({handle} == ACE_INVALID_HANDLE), {ACE_Handler::handle} will be called on the {handler} to get the correct handle. Reimplemented from ACE_Asynch_Write_Stream.

int ACE_Asynch_Write_File::write | ( | ACE_Message_Block & | message_block,
|  | size_t | bytes_to_write,
|  | unsigned long | offset = `0`,
|  | unsigned long | offset_high = `0`,
|  | const void * | act = `0`,
|  | int | priority = `0`,
|  | int | signal_number = `ACE_SIGRTMIN`
| ) |

| This starts off an asynchronous write. Upto {bytes_to_write} will be written from the {message_block}, starting at the block's {rd_ptr}. The write will go to the file, starting {offset} bytes from the beginning of the file. Priority of the operation is specified by {priority}. On POSIX4-Unix, this is supported. Works like {nice} in Unix. Negative values are not allowed. 0 means priority of the operation same as the process priority. 1 means priority of the operation is one less than process. And so forth. On Win32, this is a no-op. {signal_number} is the POSIX4 real-time signal number to be used for the operation. {signal_number} ranges from ACE_SIGRTMIN to ACE_SIGRTMAX. This argument is a no-op on non-POSIX4 systems.

int ACE_Asynch_Write_File::writev | ( | ACE_Message_Block & | message_block,
|  | size_t | bytes_to_write,
|  | unsigned long | offset = `0`,
|  | unsigned long | offset_high = `0`,
|  | const void * | act = `0`,
|  | int | priority = `0`,
|  | int | signal_number = `ACE_SIGRTMIN`
| ) |

| Same as above but with gather support, through chaining of composite message blocks using the continuation field. Note: In win32 Each data block payload must be at least the size of a system memory page and must be aligned on a system memory page size boundary
