[Boost-users] [iostreams] array_sink

My reading of the docs states that array_sink models the concept sink, 
meaning that the following should compile:

#include <boost/iostreams/device/array.hpp>
#include <boost/iostreams/operations.hpp>

namespace io = boost::iostreams;

int main( int argc, char* argv[] )
{
      char x[4] = {};

      io::array_sink lSink(x,4);

      const char* y = "abc";

      io::write( lSink, y, 4 );

  return 0;
}

I must be doing something obviously wrong, on VC7.1 I get:

c:\boost\boost_1_33_1\boost\iostreams\write.hpp(118) : error C2039: 'write' 
: is not a member of 'boost::iostreams::basic_array_sink<Ch>'
        with
        [
            Ch=char
        ]
        c:\boost\boost_1_33_1\boost\iostreams\write.hpp(52) : see reference

&,const boost::iostreams::detail::member_char_type<T>::type 
*,std::streamsize)' being compiled
        with
        [
            T=boost::iostreams::array_sink
        ]
        c:\dev\AAA - Advantage

template instantiation 'std::streamsize

being compiled
        with
        [
            T=boost::iostreams::array_sink
        ]

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Thanks, Jeff
