* {@code src.remaining()}, at the moment this method is invoked.
*
* <p> Suppose that a byte sequence of length <i>n</i> is written, where
* {@code 0} {@code <=} <i>n</i> {@code <=} <i>r</i>.
* This byte sequence will be transferred from the buffer starting at index
* <i>p</i>, where <i>p</i> is the buffer's position at the moment this
* method is invoked; the index of the last byte written will be
* <i>p</i> {@code +} <i>n</i> {@code -} {@code 1}.
* Upon return the buffer's position will be equal to
* <i>p</i> {@code +} <i>n</i>; its limit will not have changed.
*
* <p> Unless otherwise specified, a write operation will return only after
* writing all of the <i>r</i> requested bytes. Some types of channels,
* depending upon their state, may write only some of the bytes or possibly
* none at all. A socket channel in non-blocking mode, for example, cannot
* write any more bytes than are free in the socket's output buffer.
*
* <p> This method may be invoked at any time. If another thread has
* already initiated a write operation upon this channel, however, then an
* invocation of this method will block until the first operation is
* complete. </p>
