'''OpenGL extension NV.shader_buffer_store

This module customises the behaviour of the 
OpenGL.raw.GL.NV.shader_buffer_store to provide a more 
Python-friendly API

Overview (from the spec)
	
	This extension builds upon the mechanisms added by the
	NV_shader_buffer_load extension to allow shaders to perform random-access
	reads to buffer object memory without using dedicated buffer object
	binding points.  Instead, it allowed an application to make a buffer
	object resident, query a GPU address (pointer) for the buffer object, and
	then use that address as a pointer in shader code.  This approach allows
	shaders to access a large number of buffer objects without needing to
	repeatedly bind buffers to a limited number of fixed-functionality binding
	points.
	
	This extension lifts the restriction from NV_shader_buffer_load that
	disallows writes.  In particular, the MakeBufferResidentNV function now
	allows READ_WRITE and WRITE_ONLY access modes, and the shading language is
	extended to allow shaders to write through (GPU address) pointers.
	Additionally, the extension provides built-in functions to perform atomic
	memory transactions to buffer object memory.
	
	As with the shader writes provided by the EXT_shader_image_load_store
	extension, writes to buffer object memory using this extension are weakly
	ordered to allow for parallel or distributed shader execution.  The
	EXT_shader_image_load_store extension provides mechanisms allowing for
	finer control of memory transaction order, and those mechanisms apply
	equally to buffer object stores using this extension.
