+//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+// nsBaseContentStream is designed to be subclassed with the intention of being
+// used to satisfy the nsBaseChannel::OpenContentStream method.
+//
+// The subclass typically overrides the default Available, ReadSegments and
+// CloseWithStatus methods. By default, Read is implemented in terms of
+// ReadSegments, and Close is implemented in terms of CloseWithStatus. If
+// CloseWithStatus is overriden, then the subclass will usually want to call
+// the base class' CloseWithStatus method before returning.
+//
+// If the stream is non-blocking, then readSegments may return the exception
+// NS_BASE_STREAM_WOULD_BLOCK if there is no data available and the stream is
+// not at the "end-of-file" or already closed. This error code must not be
+// returned from the Available implementation. When the caller receives this
+// error code, he may choose to call the stream's AsyncWait method, in which
+// case the base stream will have a non-null PendingCallback. When the stream
+// has data or encounters an error, it should be sure to dispatch a pending
+// callback if one exists (see DispatchCallback). The implementation of the
+// base stream's CloseWithStatus (and Close) method will ensure that any
+// pending callback is dispatched. It is the responsibility of the subclass
+// to ensure that the pending callback is dispatched when it wants to have its
+// ReadSegments method called again.
