<H2>Description</H2>
<P>
Given a Filter <CODE>f</CODE> and a Device <CODE>d</CODE>, we may construct a device <CODE>c</CODE> whose member functions are implemented by invoking the fundamental i/o operations <A HREF='../functions/read.html'><CODE>read</CODE></A>, <A HREF='../functions/write.html'><CODE>write</CODE></A>, <I>etc.</I> with <CODE>f</CODE> as the first argument and <CODE>d</CODE> as the second. Similarly, if we are given two filters <CODE>f1</CODE> and <CODE>f2</CODE>, we may construct a third filter <CODE>f3</CODE> whose member function templates are implemented by invoking the fundamental i/o operations <A HREF='../functions/read.html'><CODE>read</CODE></A>, <A HREF='../functions/write.html'><CODE>write</CODE></A>, <I>etc.</I>, with first argument equal to <CODE>f1</CODE> and second argument equal to the result of composing <CODE>f2</CODE> with the provided Device.
</P>
<P>
The function template <A HREF='#composite'><CODE>composite</CODE></A> represents a Filter or Device which has been constructed in the above manner. The function template <A HREF='#compose'><CODE>compose</CODE></A> is an <A HREF='http://www.boost.org/more/generic_programming.html#object_generator' TARGET='_top'>object generator</A> which given a pair of components returns an appropriate instance of <CODE>composite</CODE>.
</P>
<P>
The <A HREF='../guide/modes.html'>mode</A> of a <CODE>composite</CODE> is defined to provide a maximal subset of the common functionality of the two components. A <CODE>composite</CODE> is <A HREF='../concepts/closable.html'>Closable</A>, <A HREF='../concepts/flushable.html'>Flushable</A>, <A HREF='../concepts/localizable.html'>Localizable</A> and <A HREF='../concepts/optimally_buffered.html'>OptimallyBuffered</A>.
