Milestone:  To Be Determined  |   Component:  Documentation

------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 In the example documentation for the multicast sender in the asio section
 (http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_48_0/doc/html/boost_asio/example/multicast/sender.cpp),
 the code for sending the message in the handle_timeout( ... ) method
 instantiates a buffer by referencing directly the 'message_' member
 variable, which is a std::string.  This results in a 'string is not
 dereferanceable' exception being thrown (on Windows anyway).

 If this is changed so that buffer is created using the 'message_.data()'
 method then all is well.
