Tries to write buffer.length
bytes from buffer
into the stream.
Will block during the operation.
This function is similar to write, except it tries to write as many bytes as requested, only stopping on an error.
On a successful write of buffer.length
bytes, true is returned, and bytes_written
is set to buffer.length
.
If there is an error during the operation false is returned and throws is set to indicate the error status.
As a special exception to the normal conventions for functions that use Error, if this function returns
false (and sets throws) then bytes_written
will be set to
the number of bytes that were successfully written before the error was encountered. This functionality is only available from C. If you
need it from another language then you must write your own loop around
write.
