/**
 * A channel that can write bytes from a sequence of buffers.
 *
 * <p> A <i>gathering</i> write operation writes, in a single invocation, a
 * sequence of bytes from one or more of a given sequence of buffers.
 * Gathering writes are often useful when implementing network protocols or
 * file formats that, for example, group data into segments consisting of one
 * or more fixed-length headers followed by a variable-length body.  Similar
 * <i>scattering</i> read operations are defined in the {@link
 * ScatteringByteChannel} interface.  </p>

     * Writes a sequence of bytes to this channel from a subsequence of the
     * given buffers.
     *
     * <p> An attempt is made to write up to <i>r</i> bytes to this channel,
     * where <i>r</i> is the total number of bytes remaining in the specified
     * subsequence of the given buffer array, that is,
     *
     * <blockquote><pre>
     * srcs[offset].remaining()
     *     + srcs[offset+1].remaining()
     *     + ... + srcs[offset+length-1].remaining()</pre></blockquote>
     *
     * at the moment that this method is invoked.
     *
     * <p> Suppose that a byte sequence of length <i>n</i> is written, where
     * <tt>0</tt>&nbsp;<tt>&lt;=</tt>&nbsp;<i>n</i>&nbsp;<tt>&lt;=</tt>&nbsp;<i>r</i>.
     * Up to the first <tt>srcs[offset].remaining()</tt> bytes of this sequence
     * are written from buffer <tt>srcs[offset]</tt>, up to the next
     * <tt>srcs[offset+1].remaining()</tt> bytes are written from buffer
     * <tt>srcs[offset+1]</tt>, and so forth, until the entire byte sequence is
     * written.  As many bytes as possible are written from each buffer, hence
     * the final position of each updated buffer, except the last updated
     * buffer, is guaranteed to be equal to that buffer's limit.
     *
     * <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>
