### Beschreibung

public int EventBuffer::copyout ( string `&$data` , int `$max_bytes` )

Behaves just like EventBuffer::read() , but does not drain any data from the buffer. I.e. it copies the first `max_bytes` bytes from the front of the buffer into `data` . If there are fewer than `max_bytes` bytes available, the function copies all the bytes there are.

### Parameter-Liste

`data`

  Output string.

`max_bytes`

  The number of bytes to copy.

### Rückgabewerte

Returns the number of bytes copied, or `-1` on failure.
