Detailed Description

template<class BufferType>
class t::BufferAttribute< BufferType >

A class representing attributes, such as vertex positions, face indices, and vertex normals.

An attribute is a buffer (array) storing data associated with a type of primitve. For example:

the vertex positions attribute (a.k.a. the vertex buffer) stores the positions of the vertices of a mesh. Every 3 consecutive values in the array specify the x, y, and z coordinates of a vertex. It is required for all geometries;
the face indices attribute (a.k.a. the index buffer) stores the indices of the vertices of the faces of a mesh;
the vertex normals attribute (a.k.a. the normal buffer) stores the vertex normals of a mesh.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

t::BufferAttribute< BufferType >::BufferAttribute	(	std::initializer_list< BufferType >	_array,
		int	_itemSize )

inline

Creates a new buffer attribute with the specified array and item size.

Parameters

_array	The array holding the data of the attribute.
_itemSize	The number of values of the array that are associated with a particular vertex.

The number of values of the array that are associated with a particular vertex e.g.

for vertex positions, itemSize should be 3 as a position in 3D space is specified using 3 values.
