                WHAT THIS OBJECT REPRESENTS
                    This is an implementation of the interface defined in
                    sockstreambuf_abstract.h except that it doesn't do any kind of buffering at
                    all.  It just writes data directly to a connection.  However, note that we
                    don't implement the flushes_output_on_read() routine as this object always
                    flushes immediately (since it isn't buffers.  Moreover, it should be
                    pointed out that this object is deprecated and only present for backwards
                    compatibility with previous versions of dlib.  So you really should use the
                    sockstreambuf object instead.

                    if (peek != EOF) then
                        peek == the last character read from the connection object and
                                is used to store the char in the event the user peeks by
                                calling sgetc()
                    if (lastread != EOF) then
                        lastread == the last character read and consumed by the user

                    if (lastread_next) then
                        the next character to be returned to the user is lastread because
                        the user put it back into the buffer
