Detailed Description

template<class T>
class lunchbox::Buffer< T >

A simple memory buffer with some helper functions.

std::vector does not implement optimizations for growing bitwise-movable vectors, i.e., it copy-constructs each element on growth.

This buffer just memcpy's elements, i.e., it should only be used for PODs since the copy constructor or assignment operator is not called on the copied elements. Primarily used for binary data, e.g., in eq::Image. The implementation works like a pool, that is, data is only released when the buffer is deleted or clear() is called.
