Detailed Description

Base class for QGL-using vertex buffer backends based on interleaved attribute arrays.

Vertex attributes are interleaved in a single array instead of having separate arrays for each attribute. E.g. for a vertex format with a Vec3f position and a Vec2f texcoord, the attributes are stored like this:

VVVTTVVVTTVVV...

Note
This is an internal class of the Renderer subsystem and should not be used elsewhere.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend ( const PrimitiveType  type,
const QVector< StelVertexAttribute > &  attributes 
)
protected

Construct a StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.

Initializes vertex attribute buffers.

Parameters
typeGraphics primitive type stored in the buffer.
attributesSpecifications of vertex attributes that will be stored in the buffer.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::addVertex ( const void *const  vertexInPtr)
virtual

Add a new vertex to the buffer.

StelVertexBuffer guarantees that when this is called, buffer is not locked and index is in range.

Parameters
vertexInPtrPointer to the beginning of the vertex. Data members of the vertex must match vertex attributes of the buffer.

Implements StelVertexBufferBackend.

virtual void StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::clear ( )
inlinevirtual

Clear the buffer, removing all vertices.

The backend implementation might reuse previously allocated storage after clearing, so calling clear() might be more efficient than destroying a buffer and then constructing a new one.

Implements StelVertexBufferBackend.

Definition at line 68 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

PrimitiveType StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::getPrimitiveType ( ) const
inline

Return graphics primitive type formed by the vertices of the buffer,.

Definition at line 92 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

virtual void StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::getVertex ( const int  index,
void *const  vertexOutPtr 
) const
virtual

Get a vertex from the buffer.

StelVertexBuffer guarantees that when this is called, buffer is not locked and index is in range.

Parameters
indexIndex of the vertex to read.
vertexOutPtrPointer to the beginning of the output vertex. Data members of the vertex must match vertex attributes of the buffer.

Implements StelVertexBufferBackend.

int StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::length ( ) const
inline

Get the number of vertices in the buffer.

Definition at line 86 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

virtual void StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::lock ( )
inlinevirtual

Lock the buffer. Must be called before drawing.

Implements StelVertexBufferBackend.

Definition at line 58 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

void StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::projectVertices ( StelProjector projector,
class StelQGLIndexBuffer indexBuffer 
)

Use a StelProjector to project vertex positions.

Can be called only immediately before drawing. The projected vertex positions are only used for one draw call - another one might use a different/modified projector or index buffer.

Parameters
projectorProjector to project the vertices.
indexBufferIndex buffer specifying which vertices to project. If NULL, all vertices are projected.
virtual void StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::setVertex ( const int  index,
const void *const  vertexInPtr 
)
inlinevirtual

Rewrite a vertex in the buffer.

StelVertexBuffer guarantees that when this is called, buffer is not locked and index is in range.

Parameters
indexIndex of the vertex to set.
vertexInPtrPointer to the beginning of the vertex that will rewrite the vertex in the buffer. Data members of the vertex must match vertex attributes of the buffer.

Implements StelVertexBufferBackend.

Definition at line 53 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

virtual void StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::unlock ( )
inlinevirtual

Unlock the buffer. Must be called to modify the buffer after drawing.

Implements StelVertexBufferBackend.

Definition at line 63 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

Member Data Documentation

bool StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::locked
protected

Is the vertex buffer locked (i.e. ready to draw?).

Definition at line 99 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

PrimitiveType StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::primitiveType
protected

Graphics primitive type formed by the vertices of this buffer.

Definition at line 102 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

Vec3f* StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::projectedPositions
protected

Projected vertex positions to draw when we're projecting vertices with a StelProjector.

This is a simple array of projected vertex positions (unprojected positions are in the vertices array interleaved with other attributes). usingProjectedPositions is true. The positions are projected by projectVertices().

Definition at line 143 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

int StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::projectedPositionsCapacity
protected

Allocated space in the projectedPositions array.

Definition at line 146 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

bool StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::usingProjectedPositions
protected

Are we using vertex positions projected by a StelProjector?

(Instead of letting OpenGL handle the projection)

This is set to true by projectVertices() and back to false by the draw call immediately after. The projected positions can only be used for one draw call, as for another one the StelProjector might be different/modified.

Definition at line 136 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

int StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::vertexBytes
protected

Size of a single vertex in bytes.

Definition at line 111 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

int StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::vertexCapacity
protected

Number of vertices we have allocated space for.

Definition at line 108 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

int StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::vertexCount
protected

Number of vertices in the buffer.

Definition at line 105 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

int StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::vertexStride
protected

Size allocated for a single vertex (size of a vertex in the vertices array)

Used for alignment.

Definition at line 116 of file StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend.hpp.

char* StelQGLInterleavedArrayVertexBufferBackend::vertices
protected

Vertices of the buffer.

Vertices are stored in an interleaved format; e.g. if the vertex format has a Vec3f vertex and Vec2f texcoord, the vertices are stored like this (every character represents a single float):

VVVTTVVVTTVVV...

Note: On 64bit, this is aligned to 16 bytes by default.
