glClearBufferData
fill a buffer object's data store with a fixed value
C Specification
void glClearBufferData
GLenum target
GLenum internalformat
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.
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
glClearBufferData fills the entirety of a buffer object's
data store with data from client memory. 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 buffer object's
data store.
If data is NULL, then 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_OPERATION is generated if any part of the buffer's data store is
mapped with glMapBufferRange or glMapBuffer.
