//! \brief Interface for buffered transformations
//! \details BufferedTransformation is a generalization of BlockTransformation,

//! \details A buffered transformation is an object that takes a stream of bytes as input (this may
//!   be done in stages), does some computation on them, and then places the result into an internal
//!   buffer for later retrieval. Any partial result already in the output buffer is not modified
//!   by further input.
//! \details If a method takes a "blocking" parameter, and you pass  false for it, then the method
//!   will return before all input has been processed if the input cannot be processed without waiting
//!   (for network buffers to become available, for example). In this case the method will return true
//!   or a non-zero integer value. When this happens you must continue to call the method with the same
//!   parameters until it returns false or zero, before calling any other method on it or attached
//!   /p BufferedTransformation. The integer return value in this case is approximately
//!   the number of bytes left to be processed, and can be used to implement a progress bar.
//! \details For functions that take a "propagation" parameter, <tt>propagation != 0</tt> means pass on
//!   the signal to attached BufferedTransformation objects, with propagation decremented at each
//!   step until it reaches <tt>0</tt>. <tt>-1</tt> means unlimited propagation.
//! \details \a All of the retrieval functions, like Get() and GetWord32(), return the actual
//!   number of bytes retrieved, which is the lesser of the request number and  MaxRetrievable().
//! \details \a Most of the input functions, like Put() and PutWord32(), return the number of
//!   bytes remaining to be processed. A 0 value means all bytes were processed, and a non-0 value
//!   means bytes remain to be processed.
