[Boost-users] ASIO sockets and stream buffers

I'm having trouble with trying to connect my TCP sockets up to a  
stream buffer, and need some help.

I've already opened my sending socket, or accepted a connection to get  
a new receiving socket, and I want to send messages back and forth.  
What I'd like to write is something like:

        void sendMessage(boost::asio::ip::tcp::socket* s) {
                ?? some stream type ?? str(s);

                str << ... write stuff ... << flush();
                str >> ... read stuff ...;
        }

I can't seem to find the right stream type that takes my existing  
socket. Does such a creature exist in the ASIO library?

Help!

Thanks in advance,
Jeff Diewald
