<a name="cogl-2.0-experimental-CoglBuffer---The-Buffer-Interface.description"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>The CoglBuffer API provides a common interface to manipulate
buffers that have been allocated either via <a class="link" href="cogl-2.0-experimental-CoglBuffer---The-Buffer-Interface.html#cogl-pixel-buffer-new" title="cogl_pixel_buffer_new ()"><code class="function">cogl_pixel_buffer_new()</code></a>
or <a class="link" href="cogl-2.0-experimental-CoglAttributeBuffer---Buffers-of-vertex-attributes.html#cogl-attribute-buffer-new" title="cogl_attribute_buffer_new ()"><code class="function">cogl_attribute_buffer_new()</code></a>. The API allows you to upload data
to these buffers and define usage hints that help Cogl manage your
buffer optimally.</p>
<p>Data can either be uploaded by supplying a pointer and size so Cogl
can copy your data, or you can <code class="function">mmap()</code> a CoglBuffer and then you can
copy data to the buffer directly.</p>
<p>One of the most common uses for CoglBuffers is to upload texture
data asynchronously since the ability to mmap the buffers into
the CPU makes it possible for another thread to handle the IO
of loading an image file and unpacking it into the mapped buffer
without blocking other Cogl operations.</p>
