| | '''OpenGL extension NV.bindless_multi_draw_indirect |
| | |
| | This module customises the behaviour of the |
| | OpenGL.raw.GL.NV.bindless_multi_draw_indirect to provide a more |
| | Python-friendly API |
| | |
| | Overview (from the spec) |
| | |
| | This extension combines NV_vertex_buffer_unified_memory and |
| | ARB_multi_draw_indirect to allow the processing of multiple drawing |
| | commands, whose vertex and index data can be sourced from arbitrary |
| | buffer locations, by a single function call. |
| | |
| | The NV_vertex_buffer_unified_memory extension provided a mechanism to |
| | specify vertex attrib and element array locations using GPU addresses. |
| | Prior to this extension, these addresses had to be set through explicit |
| | function calls. Now the ability to set the pointer addresses indirectly |
| | by extending the GL_ARB_draw_indirect mechanism has been added. |
| | |
| | Combined with other "bindless" extensions, such as NV_bindless_texture and |
| | NV_shader_buffer_load, it is now possible for the GPU to create draw |
| | commands that source all resource inputs, which are common to change |
| | frequently between draw calls from the GPU: vertex and index buffers, |
| | samplers, images and other shader input data stored in buffers. |
