Constructor & Destructor Documentation

BufferPacked()

Ogre::BufferPacked::BufferPacked	(	size_t	internalBufferStartBytes,
		size_t	numElements,
		uint32	bytesPerElement,
		uint32	numElementsPadding,
		BufferType	bufferType,
		void *	initialData,
		bool	keepAsShadow,
		VaoManager *	vaoManager,
		BufferInterface *	bufferInterface
	)

Generic constructor.

Parameters

initialData	Initial data to populate. If bufferType == BT_IMMUTABLE, can't be null.
keepAsShadow	Keeps "intialData" as a shadow copy for reading from CPU without querying the GPU (can be useful for reconstructing buffers on device/context loss or for efficient reading of the data without streaming back from GPU.)

If keepAsShadow is false, caller is responsible for freeing the data

If keepAsShadow is true, we're responsible for freeing the pointer. We will free the pointer using OGRE_FREE_SIMD( MEMCATEGORY_GEOMETRY ), in which case the pointer must* have been allocated using OGRE_MALLOC_SIMD( MEMCATEGORY_GEOMETRY )

If the constructor throws, then data will NOT be freed, and caller will have to do it.

See also

FreeOnDestructor to help you with exceptions and correctly freeing the data.

Must be false if bufferType >= BT_DYNAMIC

For internal use.

_setShadowCopy()

void Ogre::BufferPacked::_setShadowCopy

(

void *

copy

)

This will not delete the existing shadow copy so it can be used for other purposes if it is not needed call OGRE_FREE_SIMD( m->getShadowCopy(), MEMCATEGORY_GEOMETRY ) before calling this function.

This will also not automatically upload the shadow data to the GPU. The user must call upload or use a staging buffer themselves to achieve this.

advanceFrame()

void Ogre::BufferPacked::advanceFrame

(

void

)

See also

map. Do NOT call this function more than once per frame, or if you've called map( advanceFrame = true )

copyTo()

void Ogre::BufferPacked::copyTo	(	BufferPacked *	dstBuffer,
		size_t	dstElemStart = 0,
		size_t	srcElemStart = 0,
		size_t	srcNumElems = std::numeric_limits< size_t >::max()
	)

Copies the contents of this buffer to another, using GPU -> GPU transfers.

In simple terms it is similar to doing: memcpy( dstBuffer + dstElemStart, this + srcElemStart, srcNumElems );

Remarks

When both src and dst have different values for BufferPacked::getBytesPerElement() then srcNumElems * this->getBytesPerElement() must be divisible by dstBuffer->getBytesPerElement()

If dst has a shadow buffer, then src must have it too.

Parameters

dstBuffer	Buffer to copy to. Must be of type BT_DEFAULT
dstElemStart	The offset for dstBuffer. It must be in the unit of measure of dstBuffer. e.g. actual offset in bytes is dstElemStart * dstBuffer->getBytesPerElement()
srcElemStart	The offset of this buffer to start from
srcNumElems	The number of elements to copy, in units of measure of srcBuffer. When this value is out of bounds, it gets clamped. See remarks.

getBufferInterface()

BufferInterface* Ogre::BufferPacked::getBufferInterface ( void  ) const

inline

References Ogre::max(), and RESTRICT_ALIAS_RETURN.

getBufferPackedType()

virtual BufferPackedTypes Ogre::BufferPacked::getBufferPackedType ( void  ) const

pure virtual

Useful to query which one is the derived class.

Implemented in Ogre::VertexBufferPacked, Ogre::UavBufferPacked, Ogre::TexBufferPacked, Ogre::IndexBufferPacked, Ogre::ConstBufferPacked, and Ogre::IndirectBufferPacked.

getBufferType()

BufferType Ogre::BufferPacked::getBufferType ( void  ) const

inline

getBytesPerElement()

size_t Ogre::BufferPacked::getBytesPerElement ( void  ) const

inline

getMappingState()

MappingState Ogre::BufferPacked::getMappingState ( void  ) const

inline

Returns the mapping state.

Note that if you call map with MS_PERSISTENT_INCOHERENT or MS_PERSISTENT_COHERENT, then call unmap( UO_KEEP_PERSISTENT ); the returned value will still be MS_PERSISTENT_INCOHERENT/_COHERENT when persistent mapping is supported. This differs from isCurrentlyMapped

getNumElements()

size_t Ogre::BufferPacked::getNumElements ( void  ) const

inline

getShadowCopy()

const void* Ogre::BufferPacked::getShadowCopy ( void  ) const

inline

getTotalSizeBytes()

size_t Ogre::BufferPacked::getTotalSizeBytes ( void  ) const

inline

isCurrentlyMapped()

bool Ogre::BufferPacked::isCurrentlyMapped

(

void

)

const

Returns whether the buffer is currently mapped.

If you've persistently mapped the buffer and then called unmap( UO_KEEP_PERSISTENT ); this function will return false; which differs from getMappingState's behavior.

map()

void* RESTRICT_ALIAS_RETURN Ogre::BufferPacked::map	(	size_t	elementStart,
		size_t	elementCount,
		bool	bAdvanceFrame = true
	)

Maps the specified region to a pointer the CPU can access.

Only dynamic buffers can use this function. The region [elementStart; elementStart + elementCount) will be mapped.

Remarks

You can only map once per frame, regardless of parameters (except for advanceFrame). map( 0, 1 ) followed by map( 1, 1 ); is invalid. If you plan modifying elements 0 and 1; you should call map( 0, 2 )

Note that even if you use persistent mapping, you still need to call

See also

unmap.

Parameters

elementStart	Start of the region to be mapped, in elements. Normally you want this to be 0.
elementCount	Length of the region to map, in elements.

See also

getNumElements to map the whole range. Can't be 0.

Parameters

bAdvanceFrame

When true, the Buffer will be usable after unmapping it (or earlier if persistent mapped). However you won't be able to call map() again until the next frame. Calling this with false allows to call map multiple times. However ater calling unmap, you must call advanceFrame. THIS IS ONLY FOR VERY ADVANCED USERS.

readRequest()

AsyncTicketPtr Ogre::BufferPacked::readRequest	(	size_t	elementStart,

Async data read request.

A ticket will be returned. Once the async transfer finishes, you can use the ticket to read the data from CPU. AsyncTicket

regressFrame()

void Ogre::BufferPacked::regressFrame

(

void

)

Performs the opposite of.

advanceFrame. Only call this after having called advanceFrame. i.e. restore the buffer to the state it was before calling advanceFrame.

unmap()

void Ogre::BufferPacked::unmap	(	UnmapOptions	unmapOption,
		size_t	flushStartElem = 0,
		size_t	flushSizeElem = 0
	)

Unmaps or flushes the region mapped with.

See also

map. Alternatively, you can flush a smaller region (i.e. you didn't know which regions you were to update when mapping, but now that you're done, you know). The region being flushed is [flushStart; flushStart + flushSize)

Parameters

unmapOption	When using persistent mapping, UO_KEEP_PERSISTENT will keep the map alive; but you will have to call map again to use it. This requirement allows Ogre to: Synchronize if needed (avoid mapping a region that is still in use) Emulate persistent mapping on Hardware/Drivers that don't support it.
flushStartElem	In elements, 0-based index (based on the mapped region) on where to start flushing from. Default is 0.
flushSizeElem	The length of the flushing region, which can't be bigger than 'elementCount' passed to

See also

map. When this value is 0, we flush until the end of the buffer starting from flushStartElem

upload()

virtual void Ogre::BufferPacked::upload ( const void *  data, size_t  elementStart, size_t  elementCount  )

virtual

Sends the provided data to the GPU.

Parameters

data	The data to transfer to the GPU. Caller is responsible for freeing the pointer. "data" starts at offset zero. i.e. dst[elementStart * mBytesPerElement] = data[0];
elementStart	The start region, usually zero.
elementCount	Size, in number of elements, of data. Must be less than - elementStart
