	/// except that they never return negative values, but throw exception instead.
	/// returning zero means end of generic_file. The call is blocked if

	/// write returns the number of bytes written, and never make partial writtings.
	/// Thus, it is blocked until all bytes are written or occures an exception
	/// inconsequences the returned value is always the value of the argument
	/// "size".
