Context.getGroupTarget

Gets the current destination surface for the context. This is either the original target surface as passed to cairo.global.create or the target surface for the current group as started by the most recent call to cairo.context.Context.pushGroup or cairo.context.Context.pushGroupWithContent.

This function will always return a valid pointer, but the result can be a "nil" surface if cr is already in an error state, (ie. cairo.context.Context.status <literal>!=</literal> cairo.types.Status.Success). A nil surface is indicated by cairo.surface.Surface.status <literal>!=</literal> cairo.types.Status.Success.
