Detailed Description

Manages a vertex buffer in OpenGL.

This class encapsulates the creation, binding, and management of a vertex buffer. It allows for dynamic or static data storage and provides methods to set data and retrieve the buffer layout.

Note

The buffer is identified by a renderer ID assigned by OpenGL.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

VertexBuffer()

lmgl::renderer::VertexBuffer::VertexBuffer	(	const void *	vertices,
		unsigned int	size,
		bool	dynamic = false )

Constructor for the VertexBuffer.

Initializes the vertex buffer with the provided vertex data and size. The buffer can be created as dynamic or static based on the 'dynamic' flag.

Parameters

vertices	Pointer to the vertex data.
size	Size of the vertex data in bytes.
dynamic	Indicates if the buffer is dynamic (default is false).

Member Function Documentation

bind()

void lmgl::renderer::VertexBuffer::bind

(

)

const

Bind the vertex buffer.

Activates the vertex buffer for subsequent rendering operations.

get_layout()

const BufferLayout & lmgl::renderer::VertexBuffer::get_layout

(

)

const

Get the layout of the vertex buffer.

Returns a constant reference to the BufferLayout that describes the structure of the vertex data in the buffer.

Returns

Constant reference to the BufferLayout.

set_data()

void lmgl::renderer::VertexBuffer::set_data	(	const void *	data,
		unsigned int	size )

Set the data of the vertex buffer.

Updates the contents of the vertex buffer with new data.

Parameters

data	Pointer to the new vertex data.
size	Size of the new vertex data in bytes.

set_layout()

void lmgl::renderer::VertexBuffer::set_layout

(

const BufferLayout &

layout

)

Set the layout of the vertex buffer.

Assigns a BufferLayout to the vertex buffer, defining the structure of the vertex data.

Parameters

layout

The BufferLayout to be assigned to the vertex buffer.

unbind()

void lmgl::renderer::VertexBuffer::unbind

(

)

const

Unbind the vertex buffer.

Deactivates the vertex buffer.
