	Get the number of components in the buffer element.

Public Attributes
std::string	name
	Name of the buffer element.
ShaderDataType	type
	Data type of the buffer element.

Detailed Description

Represents a single element in a buffer layout.

This structure defines the properties of a buffer element, including its name, data type, size, offset within the buffer, and whether it is normalized. It is used to describe the layout of vertex attributes in a vertex buffer.

Note

The size and offset are calculated based on the ShaderDataType.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

BufferElement()

lmgl::renderer::BufferElement::BufferElement	(	ShaderDataType	type,
		const std::string &	name,
		bool	normalized = false )

Parameterized constructor.

Initializes a BufferElement with the specified type, name, and normalization flag. Calculates the size based on the ShaderDataType.

Parameters

type	Data type of the buffer element.
name	Name of the buffer element.
normalized	Indicates if the data is normalized (default is false).

)

const

Get the number of components in the buffer element.

This method returns the number of individual components that make up the buffer element based on its ShaderDataType.

Returns

Number of components in the buffer element.
