## src_c/bufferproxy.c

This extension module defines Python type `pygame.BufferProxy` pygame object to export a surface buffer through an array protocol.

Header file: src_c/include/pygame_bufferproxy.h

PyTypeObject *`pgBufproxy_Type`

  The pygame buffer proxy object type pygame.BufferProxy.

int `pgBufproxy_Check`(PyObject *x)

  Return true if Python object x is a `pygame.BufferProxy` instance, false otherwise. This will return false on `pygame.BufferProxy` subclass instances as well.

PyObject* `pgBufproxy_New`(PyObject *obj, getbufferproc get_buffer)

  Return a new `pygame.BufferProxy` instance. Argument obj is the Python object that has its data exposed. It may be `NULL`. Argument get_buffer is the `pg_buffer` get callback. It must not be `NULL`. On failure raise a Python error and return `NULL`.

PyObject* `pgBufproxy_GetParent`(PyObject *obj)

  Return the Python object wrapped by buffer proxy obj. Argument obj must not be `NULL`. On failure, raise a Python error and return `NULL`.

int `pgBufproxy_Trip`(PyObject *obj)

  Cause the buffer proxy object obj to create a `pg_buffer` view of its parent. Argument obj must not be `NULL`. Return `0` on success, otherwise raise a Python error and return `-1`.
