<p>
This function is used to read data into the specified streambuf until the
streambuf's get area contains some data that matches a regular expression.
The call will block until one of the following conditions is true:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li>
A substring of the streambuf's get area matches the regular expression.
</li>
<li>
An error occurred.
</li>
</ul></div>
<p>
This operation is implemented in terms of zero or more calls to the stream's
read_some function. If the streambuf's get area already contains data that
matches the regular expression, the function returns immediately.

<p>
After a successful read_until operation, the streambuf may contain additional
data beyond that which matched the regular expression. An application will
typically leave that data in the streambuf for a subsequent read_until
operation to examine.

To read data into a streambuf until a CR-LF sequence is encountered:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="identifier">asio</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">streambuf</span> <span class="identifier">b</span><span class="special">;</span>
<span class="identifier">asio</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">read_until</span><span class="special">(</span><span class="identifier">s</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="identifier">b</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">regex</span><span class="special">(</span><span class="string">"\r\n"</span><span class="special">));</span>
<span class="identifier">std</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">istream</span> <span class="identifier">is</span><span class="special">(&</span><span class="identifier">b</span><span class="special">);</span>
<span class="identifier">std</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">string</span> <span class="identifier">line</span><span class="special">;</span>
<span class="identifier">std</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">getline</span><span class="special">(</span><span class="identifier">is</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="identifier">line</span><span class="special">);</span>
</pre>
<p>
After the <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">read_until</span></code> operation
completes successfully, the buffer <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">b</span></code>
contains the data which matched the regular expression:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="special">{</span> <span class="char">'a'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="char">'b'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="special">...,</span> <span class="char">'c'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="char">'\r'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="char">'\n'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="char">'d'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="char">'e'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="special">...</span> <span class="special">}</span>
</pre>
<p>
The call to <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">std</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">getline</span></code> then extracts the data up to
and including the match, so that the string <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">line</span></code>
contains:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="special">{</span> <span class="char">'a'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="char">'b'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="special">...,</span> <span class="char">'c'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="char">'\r'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="char">'\n'</span> <span class="special">}</span>
</pre>
<p>
The remaining data is left in the buffer <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">b</span></code>
as follows:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="special">{</span> <span class="char">'d'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="char">'e'</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="special">...</span> <span class="special">}</span>
</pre>
<p>
This data may be the start of a new line, to be extracted by a subsequent
<code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">read_until</span></code> operation.
