<p>
          This function is used to asynchronously read a certain number of bytes
          of data from a stream. The function call always returns immediately. The
          asynchronous operation will continue until one of the following conditions
          is true:
        </p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li>
            An error occurred.
          </li></ul></div>
<p>
          This operation is implemented in terms of zero or more calls to the stream's
          async_read_some function.
        </p>

              The stream from which the data is to be read. The type must support
              the AsyncReadStream concept.

<dt><span class="term">b</span></dt>
<dd><p>
              A basic_streambuf object into which the data will be read. Ownership
              of the streambuf is retained by the caller, which must guarantee that
              it remains valid until the handler is called.

<dt><span class="term">handler</span></dt>
<dd>
<p>
              The handler to be called when the read operation completes. Copies
              will be made of the handler as required. The function signature of
              the handler must be:

</span><span class="special">);</span> 
</pre>
<p>
              Regardless of whether the asynchronous operation completes immediately
              or not, the handler will not be invoked from within this function.
              Invocation of the handler will be performed in a manner equivalent
              to using asio::io_service::post().
