130 The function `cxBufferMinimumCapacity()` guarantees a buffer capacity of _at least_ `capacity`. 130 The function `cxBufferMinimumCapacity()` guarantees a buffer capacity of _at least_ `capacity`.
131 It may allocate more space, depending on the allocation strategy. 131 The actual capacity will be a power of two until the system's page size is reached.
132 Then, the new capacity will be a multiple of the page size.
132 The function returns non-zero if increasing the capacity was attempted unsuccessfully. 133 The function returns non-zero if increasing the capacity was attempted unsuccessfully.

134 The function `cxBufferShrink()` can be used to shrink the capacity of the buffer to its current size 135 The function `cxBufferShrink()` can be used to shrink the capacity of the buffer to its current size
135 plus a number of `reserve` bytes. 136 plus a number of `reserve` bytes.
136 If the current capacity is not larger than the size plus the reserve bytes, the function will do nothing. 137 If the current capacity is not larger than the size plus the reserve bytes, the function will do nothing.
