Struct tetra::graphics::mesh::VertexBuffer [−][src]
Vertex data, stored in GPU memory.
This data can be drawn to the screen via a Mesh
.
Performance
Creating a VertexBuffer
is a relatively expensive operation. If you can, store them in your
State
struct rather than recreating them each frame.
Cloning a VertexBuffer
is a very cheap operation, as the underlying data is shared between the
original instance and the clone via reference-counting.
This does mean, however, that updating a VertexBuffer
will also update any other clones of
that VertexBuffer
.
Implementations
impl VertexBuffer
[src]
pub fn new(ctx: &mut Context, vertices: &[Vertex]) -> Result<VertexBuffer>
[src]
Creates a new vertex buffer.
The buffer will be created with the BufferUsage::Dynamic
usage hint - this can
be overridden via the with_usage
constructor.
Errors
TetraError::PlatformError
will be returned if the underlying graphics API encounters an error.
pub fn with_usage(
ctx: &mut Context,
vertices: &[Vertex],
usage: BufferUsage
) -> Result<VertexBuffer>
[src]
ctx: &mut Context,
vertices: &[Vertex],
usage: BufferUsage
) -> Result<VertexBuffer>
Creates a new vertex buffer, with the specified usage hint.
The GPU may optionally use the usage hint to optimize data storage and access.
Errors
TetraError::PlatformError
will be returned if the underlying graphics API encounters an error.
pub fn set_data(&self, ctx: &mut Context, vertices: &[Vertex], offset: usize)
[src]
pub fn into_mesh(self) -> Mesh
[src]
Creates a mesh using this buffer.
This is a shortcut for calling Mesh::new
.
