glClearBufferSubData
fill all or part of buffer object's data store with a fixed value
C Specification
void glClearBufferSubData
GLenum target
GLenum internalformat
GLintptr offset
GLsizeiptr size
GLenum format
GLenum type
const void * data
Parameters
target
Specify the target of the operation. target must be
one of the global buffer binding targets.
internalformat
The internal format with which the data will be stored in the buffer object.
offset
The offset, in basic machine units into the buffer object's data store at which to start filling.
size
The size, in basic machine units of the range of the data store to fill.
format
The format of the data in memory addressed by data.
type
The type of the data in memory addressed by data.
data
The address of a memory location storing the data to be replicated into the
buffer's data store.
Description
glClearBufferSubData fills a specified region of a buffer object's
data store with data from client memory. offset and size
demark the extent of the region within the data store of the buffer object bound to
target to fill with data. Data, initially supplied in a format
specified by format in data type type is
read from the memory address given by data and converted into
the internal representation given by internalforamt.
This converted data is then replicated throughout the specified region of the buffer object's
data store.
If data is NULL, then the subrange of the buffer's data store
is filled with zeros.
Errors
GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if target not one of the generic buffer binding targets.
GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if no buffer is bound to target.
GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if internalformat is not a sized internal format.
GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if offset or range are not multiples of
the number of basic machine units per-element for the internal format specified by
internalformat.
GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if offset or size is less than zero, or if
offset + size is greater than the value of GL_BUFFER_SIZE for the buffer bound to target.
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if any part of the specified buffer range is
mapped with glMapBufferRange or glMapBuffer.
