[section:Parser Parser requirements]
A [*Parser] is used to deserialize objects from
[link beast.ref.streams streams]. Objects of this type are used with
[link beast.ref.http__parse http::parse] and
[link beast.ref.http__async_parse http::async_parse]. The definition of
an object, and the predicate defining when the parse is complete, are
determined by the implementation.
In this table:
* `X` denotes a type meeting the requirements of [*Parser].
* `a` denotes a value of type `X`.
* `b` is a value meeting the requirements of __ConstBufferSequence__.
* `ec` is a value of type [link beast.ref.error_code `error_code&`].

[[operation] [type] [semantics, pre/post-conditions]]
[
[`a.complete()`]
[`bool`]
[
Returns `true` when parsing is complete.
]
]
[
[`a.write(b, ec)`]
[`std::size_t`]
[
Sequentially parses the octets in the specified input buffer sequence
until an error occurs, the end of the buffer is reached, or parsing is
complete. Upon success, this function returns the number of bytes used
from the input. If an error occurs, `ec` is set to the error code and
parsing stops.
]
]
[
[`a.write_eof(ec)`]
[`void`]
[
Indicates to the parser that no more octets will be available.
Typically this function is called when the end of stream is reached.
For example, if a call to `boost::asio::ip::tcp::socket::read_some`
generates a `boost::asio::error::eof` error. Some objects, such as
certain HTTP/1 messages, determine the end of the message body by
an end of file marker or closing of the connection.
