<DIV Class="Paranum"><FONT SIZE=-2>1</FONT></DIV>
<DIV Class="Normal" Style="margin-bottom: 0.4em">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The following example
defines a buffer protected object to smooth variations between the speed
of output of a producing task and the speed of input of some consuming
task. For instance, the producing task might have the following structure:</DIV>
<DIV Class="Paranum"><FONT SIZE=-2>2</FONT></DIV>
<DIV Class="Examples"><TT><B>task</B>&nbsp;Producer;</TT></DIV>
<DIV Class="Paranum"><FONT SIZE=-2>3</FONT></DIV>

<DIV Class="Paranum"><FONT SIZE=-2>4</FONT></DIV>

task might have the following structure:</DIV>

<DIV Class="Paranum"><FONT SIZE=-2>7</FONT></DIV>
<DIV Class="Normal" Style="margin-bottom: 0.4em">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The buffer object
contains an internal pool of characters managed in a round-robin fashion.
The pool has two indices, an In_Index denoting the space for the next
input character and an Out_Index denoting the space for the next output
character.</DIV>
