Subject: [Boost-users] [iostreams] restriction device/filter

Hello,
I'm looking at the implementation of the "restriction" device, from
Boost.Iostreams library, which provides access to a subsequence of the
original device.
When it reaches the end of the input subsequence, the restriction device
start performing read()'s of size zero on the original device. Shouldn't
it be returning an end-of-sequence marker (EOF) instead?
I am using a restriction device as source parameter for the
iostreams::copy function and this always results in an infinite loop. Am
I doing something wrong?
Thanks!
