/// \class buffer
/// \brief A memory buffer on a compute device.
///
/// The buffer class represents a memory buffer on a compute device.
///
/// Buffers are allocated within a compute context. For example, to allocate
/// a memory buffer for 32 float's:
///
/// \snippet test/test_buffer.cpp constructor
///
/// Once created, data can be copied to and from the buffer using the
/// \c enqueue_*_buffer() methods in the command_queue class. For example, to
/// copy a set of \c int values from the host to the device:
/// \code
/// int data[] = { 1, 2, 3, 4 };
///
/// queue.enqueue_write_buffer(buf, 0, 4 * sizeof(int), data);
/// \endcode
///
/// Also see the copy() algorithm for a higher-level interface to copying data
/// between the host and the device. For a higher-level, dynamically-resizable,
/// type-safe container for data on a compute device, use the vector<T> class.
///
/// Buffer objects have reference semantics. Creating a copy of a buffer
/// object simply creates another reference to the underlying OpenCL memory
/// object. To create an actual copy use the buffer::clone() method.
///
