/**
An optional companion interface to
com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream that supports scenarios
where com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream::writeBytes()
operates asynchronously and does not necessarily report any errors.
<p>A typical scenario where this interface is useful is when an
com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream is used to write to a
file via NFS. Normally, any calls to
com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream::writeBytes() will
execute asynchronously then, in that any potential errors might only be
reported by later calls to
com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream::writeBytes() or
com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream::closeOutput(). If
such an output stream shall not be closed immediately after one or more calls
to com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream::writeBytes(), but
the client wants to know as soon as possible whether writing was successful,
then
com::sun::star::io::XAsyncOutputMonitor::waitForCompletion()
should be called after the series of calls to
com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream::writeBytes().</p>
@since OOo 2.0

interface XAsyncOutputMonitor {
/**
waits for the completion of any previous calls to
com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream::writeBytes(),
and reports potentially pending errors.
<p>Calling this method is potentially expensive (even if the associated
com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream represents a local
file not accessed via NFS, for example). This method has a similar
description to
com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream::flush().
However, where the semantics of <code>flush</code> are rather vague,
<code>waitForCompletion</code> has very specific semantics—it just
blocks long enough so that any errors encountered during previous calls
to com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream::writeBytes()
can reliably be reported. It specifically does not guarantee that any
data have safely been stored on a stable physical medium, like a hard
disk (and it is completely unspecified whether <code>flush</code> should
give this guarantee).</p>
@throws com::sun::star::io::IOException
if any previous call to com::sun::star::io::XOutputStream::writeBytes()
encountered such an error, but has not yet reported it (in cases where
<code>writeBytes</code> operates asynchronously).
