This is part of a broader cleanup of some of the experimental Cogl API. One of the reasons for this particular rename is to reduce the verbosity of using the API. Another reason is that CoglVertexArray is going to be renamed CoglAttributeBuffer and we want to help emphasize the relationship between CoglAttributes and CoglAttributeBuffers.

|
|
* @array: The #CoglVertexArray containing the actual attribute data
|
|
* @name: The name of the attribute (used to reference it from GLSL)

|
|
* value for the next vertex. (Usually
|
|
* <pre>sizeof (MyVertex)</pre>)
|
|
* @offset: The byte offset from the start of @array for the first
|
|
* attribute value. (Usually
|
|
* <pre>offsetof (MyVertex, component0)</pre>
|
|
* @components: The number of components (e.g. 4 for an rgba color or
|
|
* 3 for and (x,y,z) position)
|
|
* @type: FIXME
|
|
*
|
|
* Describes the layout for a list of vertex attribute values (For
|
|
* example, a list of texture coordinates or colors).
|
|
*
|
|
* The @name is used to access the attribute inside a GLSL vertex
|
|
* shader and there are some special names you should use if they are
|
|
* applicable:
|
|
* <itemizedlist>
|
|
* <listitem>"cogl_position_in" (used for vertex positions)</listitem>
|
|
* <listitem>"cogl_color_in" (used for vertex colors)</listitem>
|
|
* <listitem>"cogl_tex_coord0_in", "cogl_tex_coord1", ...
|
|
* (used for vertex texture coordinates)</listitem>
|
|
* <listitem>"cogl_normal_in" (used for vertex normals)</listitem>
|
|
* </itemizedlist>
|
|
*
|
|
* The attribute values corresponding to different vertices can either
|
|
* be tightly packed or interleaved with other attribute values. For
|
|
* example it's common to define a structure for a single vertex like:
|
|
* |[
|
|
* typedef struct
|
|
* {
|
|
* float x, y, z; /<!-- -->* position attribute *<!-- -->/
|
|
* float s, t; /<!-- -->* texture coordinate attribute *<!-- -->/
|
|
* } MyVertex;
|
|
* ]|
|
|
*
|
|
* And then create an array of vertex data something like:
|
|
* |[
|
|
* MyVertex vertices[100] = { .... }
|
|
* ]|
|
|
*
|
|
* In this case, to describe either the position or texture coordinate
|
|
* attribute you have to move <pre>sizeof (MyVertex)</pre> bytes to
|
|
* move from one vertex to the next. This is called the attribute
|
|
* @stride. If you weren't interleving attributes and you instead had
|
|
* a packed array of float x, y pairs then the attribute stride would
|
|
* be <pre>(2 * sizeof (float))</pre>. So the @stride is the number of
|
|
* bytes to move to find the attribute value of the next vertex.
|
|
*
|
|
* Normally a list of attributes starts at the beginning of an array.
|
|
* So for the <pre>MyVertex</pre> example above the @offset is the
|
|
* offset inside the <pre>MyVertex</pre> structure to the first
|
|
* component of the attribute. For the texture coordinate attribute
|
|
* the offset would be <pre>offsetof (MyVertex, s)</pre> or instead of
|
|
* using the offsetof macro you could use <pre>sizeof (float) * 3</pre>.
|
|
* If you've divided your @array into blocks of non-interleved
|
|
* attributes then you will need to calculate the @offset as the
|
|
* number of bytes in blocks preceding the attribute you're
|
|
* describing.
|
|
*
|
|
* An attribute often has more than one component. For example a color
|
|
* is often comprised of 4 red, green, blue and alpha @components, and a
|
|
* position may be comprised of 2 x and y @components. You should aim
|
|
* to keep the number of components to a minimum as more components
|
|
* means more data needs to be mapped into the GPU which can be a
|
|
* bottlneck when dealing with a large number of vertices.
|
|
*
|
|
* Finally you need to specify the component data type. Here you
|
|
* should aim to use the smallest type that meets your precision
|
|
* requirements. Again the larger the type then more data needs to be
|
|
* mapped into the GPU which can be a bottlneck when dealing with
|
|
* a large number of vertices.
|
|
*
|
|
* Returns: A newly allocated #CoglAttribute describing the
|
|
* layout for a list of attribute values stored in @array.
|
|
*
|
|
* Since: 1.4
|
|
* Stability: Unstable
