pub struct BuffersBuilder<'l, OutputVertex: 'l, OutputIndex: 'l, Ctor> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

A temporary view on a VertexBuffers object which facilitate the population of vertex and index data.

BuffersBuilders record the vertex offset from when they are created so that algorithms using them don’t need to worry about offsetting indices if some geometry was added beforehand. This means that from the point of view of a BuffersBuilder user, the first added vertex is at always offset at the offset 0 and VertexBuilder takes care of translating indices adequately.

Often, algorithms are built to generate vertex positions without knowledge of eventual other vertex vertex. The VertexConstructor does the translation from generic Input to OutputVertex. If your logic generates the actual vertex type directly, you can use the SimpleBuffersBuilder convenience typedef.

Implementations

Consumes self and returns a builder with opposite triangle face winding.

Trait Implementations

Inserts a vertex, providing its position, and optionally a normal. Returns a vertex id that is only valid between begin_geometry and end_geometry. Read more
Called at the beginning of a generation. Read more
abort_geometry is called instead of end_geometry if an error occurred while producing the geometry and we won’t be able to finish. Read more
Insert a triangle made of vertices that were added after the last call to begin_geometry. Read more
Called at the end of a generation. Returns the number of vertices and indices added since the last time begin_geometry was called. Read more
