Draw a range of vertices or indexed elements.

Call this function only successful enabeling via validate_and_enable() or enable(). Capsulates glDrawArrays and glDrawElements calls. Overloaded implementations of specific renderers choose the to be used gl primitive type and whether to use an instanced draw call.

Parameters

count	number of to be drawn vertices/elements
start	index of first to be drawn vertex/element
use_strips	whether to generate primitives in strips (only for line or triangle primitives)
use_adjacency	whether to specify adjacency information (only for line or triangle primitives)
strip_restart_index	extraorindary index used to mark end of strips (only for strip based drawing) Strip based drawing can be combined with the use of adjacency information. Default implementation uses triangle primitives.

render()

bool cgv::render::renderer::render ( context &  ctx, size_t  start, size_t  count, bool  use_strips = false, bool  use_adjacency = false, uint32_t  strip_restart_index = -1  )

virtual

Convenience function that draws vertex or indexed element with this renderer.

This function effectively calls validate_and_enable(), draw() and disable(), passes its parameters to draw and returns the result of validate_and_enable(). draw() and disable() are only executed if validate_and_enable() succeeds. For performance reasons this function should not be used for several successive draw calls due to the unnecessary enabling and disabling between render calls. Typically, this function does not need to be overloaded by specific renderers.

set_indices() [1/3]

template<typename T >

bool cgv::render::renderer::set_indices ( const context &  ctx, const std::vector< T > &  indices, bool  keep_on_cpu = false  )

inline

Set the indices for indexed rendering from a vector.

If an attribute array manager is enabled and keep_on_cpu is false (default), create GPU index buffer and transfer indices into it.

Template Parameters

T	index type must be uint8_t, uint16_t, or uint32_t

Parameters

ctx	opengl context in which indexed rendering takes place
indices	vector of indices
keep_on_cpu	flag whether indices should be kept in CPU memory

Returns

this can only fail if indices cannot be copied to GPU buffer

Definition at line 214 of file renderer.h.

template<typename T >

bool cgv::render::renderer::set_indices ( const context &  ctx, const T *  indices, size_t  nr_indices, bool  keep_on_cpu = false  )

inline

Set the indices for indexed rendering from an array given as a pointer.

If an attribute array manager is enabled and keep_on_cpu is false (default), create GPU index buffer and transfer indices into it.

Template Parameters

T	index type must be uint8_t, uint16_t, or uint32_t

Parameters

ctx	opengl context in which indexed rendering takes place
indices	pointer to array containing the indices
nr_indices	number of indices in the array
keep_on_cpu	flag whether indices should be kept in CPU memory

Returns

this can only fail if indices cannot be copied to GPU buffer

set_indices() [3/3]

template<typename T >

bool cgv::render::renderer::set_indices ( const context &  ctx, const vertex_buffer &  vbo, size_t  count  )

inline

Set the indices for indexed rendering from a GPU buffer.

If an attribute array manager is enabled its index buffer is removed through this call.

Template Parameters

T	index type must be uint8_t, uint16_t, or uint32_t

Parameters

ctx	opengl context in which indexed rendering takes place
vbo	GPU buffer
count	number of indices in the GPU buffer

Returns

in current implementation this succeeds always
