Feature parity

Shared buffers

Since each ammer target has a different runtime with different internal representations of core types such as haxe.io.Bytes, some targets do not support directly sharing memory between Haxe code and native code.

In the target summaries in the remaining sections, "Shared buffers" is one of the following:

Yes - haxe.io.Bytes can be passed directly (without copying) to the native library as a byte pointer and vice versa.
From Haxe to native only - haxe.io.Bytes can be passed directly (without copying) to the native library as a byte pointer but a native byte pointer cannot be used as a haxe.io.Bytes value.
No - haxe.io.Bytes must always be copied to get a byte pointer.

Shared vectors

In the target summaries in the remaining sections, "Shared vectors" is one of the following:

Yes - haxe.ds.Vector can be passed directly (without copying) to the native library as a pointer and vice versa.
From Haxe to native only - haxe.ds.Vector can be passed directly (without copying) to the native library as a pointer but a native pointer cannot be used as a haxe.ds.Vector value.
No - haxe.ds.Vector must always be copied to get a pointer.
