Detailed Description

Generic index buffer interface usable with all Renderer backends.

Used to specify order in which vertices from a vertex buffer are drawn (allowing to e.g. draw the same vertex in multiple triangles without duplicating it, saving memory and RAM-VRAM bandwidth).

Definition at line 45 of file StelIndexBuffer.hpp.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

virtual StelIndexBuffer::~StelIndexBuffer ( )

inlinevirtual

Virtual destructor.

Definition at line 49 of file StelIndexBuffer.hpp.

StelIndexBuffer::StelIndexBuffer ( IndexType indexType )

inlineprotected

Initialize data common for all index buffer implementations.

Definition at line 150 of file StelIndexBuffer.hpp.

Member Function Documentation

void StelIndexBuffer::addIndex ( const uint index )

inline

Add a new index to the end of the buffer.

The buffer must not be locked.

Parameters

index Index to add.

Definition at line 56 of file StelIndexBuffer.hpp.

virtual void StelIndexBuffer::addIndex_ ( const uint index )

protectedpure virtual

Implementation of addIndex.

See Also: addIndex

Implemented in StelQGLIndexBuffer.

void StelIndexBuffer::clear ( )

inline

Clear the buffer, removing all indices.

Can only be called when unlocked.

The backend might reuse previously allocated storage after clearing, so calling clear() might be more efficient than destroying a buffer and then constructing a new one.

Definition at line 106 of file StelIndexBuffer.hpp.

virtual void StelIndexBuffer::clear_ ( )

protectedpure virtual

Implementation of clear.

See Also: clear

Implemented in StelQGLIndexBuffer.

uint StelIndexBuffer::getIndex ( const int which ) const

inline

Return index at specified position in the buffer.

The buffer must not be locked.

Parameters

which Position of the index to get.

Returns: Index at specified position.

Definition at line 73 of file StelIndexBuffer.hpp.

virtual uint StelIndexBuffer::getIndex_ ( const int which ) const

protectedpure virtual

Implementation of getIndex.

See Also: getIndex

Implemented in StelQGLIndexBuffer.

IndexType StelIndexBuffer::indexType ( ) const

inline

Get type of indices (16bit or 32bit)

Definition at line 134 of file StelIndexBuffer.hpp.

int StelIndexBuffer::length ( ) const

inline

Returns the number of indices in the buffer.

Definition at line 140 of file StelIndexBuffer.hpp.

void StelIndexBuffer::lock ( )

inline

Lock the buffer. Must be called before drawing.

Definition at line 114 of file StelIndexBuffer.hpp.

virtual void StelIndexBuffer::lock_ ( )

protectedpure virtual

Implementation of lock.

See Also: lock

Implemented in StelQGLIndexBuffer.

bool StelIndexBuffer::locked ( ) const

inline

Is this buffer locked?

Definition at line 128 of file StelIndexBuffer.hpp.

void StelIndexBuffer::setIndex	(	const int	which,
		const uint	index
	)

inline

Set specified index in the buffer.

The buffer must not be locked.

Parameters

which	Position of the index to set.
index	Value to set the index to.

Definition at line 88 of file StelIndexBuffer.hpp.

virtual void StelIndexBuffer::setIndex_	(	const int	which,
		const uint	index
	)

protectedpure virtual

Implementation of setIndex.

See Also: setIndex

Implemented in StelQGLIndexBuffer.

void StelIndexBuffer::unlock ( )

inline

Unlock the buffer. Must be called to modify the buffer after drawing.

Definition at line 121 of file StelIndexBuffer.hpp.

virtual void StelIndexBuffer::unlock_ ( )

protectedpure virtual

Implementation of unlock.

See Also: unlock

Implemented in StelQGLIndexBuffer.
