Send some data on a connected socket.

    template<

    std::size_t send(
        const ConstBufferSequence & buffers,
        socket_base::message_flags flags,
        boost::system::error_code & ec);

This function is used to send data on the datagram socket. The function call will block until the data has been sent successfully or an error occurs.

flags

  Flags specifying how the send call is to be made.

ec
