     ```d
     package(pham.db):  // Line# 133
         final DbReadBuffer acquireSocketReadBuffer(size_t 
capacity = DbDefaultSize.socketReadBufferLength) nothrow @safe
         {
             version (TraceFunction) dgFunctionTrace();

             if (_socketReadBuffer is null)
                 _socketReadBuffer = 
createSocketReadBuffer(capacity);
             return _socketReadBuffer;
         }
     ```
