Buffer

Represents a buffer opengl object. A buffer opengl object is the mechanism through which data can be stored in the GPU, usually vertex data of the models to be rendered.

This class eases/abstracts the interaction with this kind of opengl objects.

class Buffer {

this();

~this();

static GLuint gen();

static void del(GLuint buffer);

void bufferData(void* data, size_t size);

void bind();

}

Constructors

this this(): Constructs a new and empty buffer

Destructor

~this ~this(): Undocumented in source.

Members

Functions

bind void bind(): Binds the buffer to the current opengl context
bufferData void bufferData(void* data, size_t size): Sends the unformatted data of the specified size to the buffer

Static functions

del void del(GLuint buffer): Deletes a opengl buffer given it's name Params : buffer = opengl name of the opengl buffer
gen GLuint gen(): Generates a new opengl buffer and returns it's name
