        <para>
            <function>glBindVertexBuffer</function> binds the buffer named <parameter>buffer</parameter>
            to the vertex buffer binding point whose index is given by <parameter>bindingindex</parameter>.
            <parameter>offset</parameter> and <parameter>stride</parameter> specify the offset of the first
            element within the buffer and the distance between elements within the buffer, respectively, and
            are both measured in basic machine units. <parameter>bindingindex</parameter> must be less than
            the value of <constant>GL_MAX_VERTEX_ATTRIB_BINDINGS</constant>. <parameter>offset</parameter>
            and <parameter>stride</parameter> must be greater than or equal to zero. If <parameter>buffer</parameter>
            is zero, then any buffer currently bound to the specified binding point is unbound.
