|
|
<para>
|
|
<function>glMultiDrawElementsIndirect</function> specifies multiple indexed geometric primitives
|
|
with very few subroutine calls. <function>glMultiDrawElementsIndirect</function> behaves
|
|
similarly to a multitude of calls to <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glDrawElementsInstancedBaseVertexBaseInstance</refentrytitle></citerefentry>,
|
|
execpt that the parameters to <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glDrawElementsInstancedBaseVertexBaseInstance</refentrytitle></citerefentry>
|
|
are stored in an array in memory at the address given by <parameter>indirect</parameter>, separated
|
|
by the stride, in basic machine units, specified by <parameter>stride</parameter>. If <parameter>stride</parameter>
|
|
is zero, then the array is assumed to be tightly packed in memory.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The parameters addressed by <parameter>indirect</parameter> are packed into a structure
|
|
that takes the form (in C):
|
|
<programlisting><![CDATA[ typedef struct {
|
|
uint count;
|
|
uint instanceCount;
|
|
uint firstIndex;
|
|
uint baseVertex;
|
|
uint baseInstance;
|
|
} DrawElementsIndirectCommand;]]></programlisting>
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
A single call to <function>glMultiDrawElementsIndirect</function> is equivalent, assuming no errors
|
|
are generated to:
|
|
<programlisting><![CDATA[ GLsizei n;
|
|
for (n = 0; n < drawcount; n++)
|
|
{
|
|
const DrawElementsIndirectCommand *cmd;
|
|
if (stride != 0)
|
|
{
|
|
cmd = (const DrawElementsIndirectCommand *)((uintptr)indirect + n * stride);
|
|
}
|
|
else
|
|
{
|
|
cmd = (const DrawElementsIndirectCommand *)indirect + n;
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
glDrawElementsInstancedBaseVertexBaseInstance(mode,
|
|
cmd->count,
|
|
type,
|
|
cmd->firstIndex + size-of-type,
|
|
cmd->instanceCount,
|
|
cmd->baseVertex,
|
|
cmd->baseInstance);
|
|
}]]></programlisting>
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
If a buffer is bound to the <constant>GL_DRAW_INDIRECT_BUFFER</constant> binding at the time
|
|
of a call to <function>glDrawElementsIndirect</function>, <parameter>indirect</parameter>
|
|
is interpreted as an offset, in basic machine units, into that buffer and the parameter
|
|
data is read from the buffer rather than from client memory.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Note that indices stored in client memory are not supported. If no buffer is bound to the
|
|
<constant>GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER</constant> binding, an error will be generated.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The results of the operation are undefined if the <code>reservedMustBeZero</code> member
|
|
of the parameter structure is non-zero. However, no error is generated in this case.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Vertex attributes that are modified by <function>glDrawElementsIndirect</function> have an
|
|
unspecified value after <function>glDrawElementsIndirect</function> returns. Attributes that aren't
|
|
modified remain well defined.
|
|
</para>

</refsect1>

|
<refsect1 id="notes"><title>Notes</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The <parameter>baseInstance</parameter> member of the <parameter>DrawElementsIndirectCommand</parameter>
|
|
structure is defined only if the GL version is 4.2 or greater. For versions of the GL less than 4.2,
|
|
this parameter is present but is reserved and should be set to zero. On earlier versions of the GL,
|
|
behavior is undefined if it is non-zero.

<para>
|
|
<constant>GL_INVALID_ENUM</constant> is generated if <parameter>mode</parameter> is not an accepted value.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
<constant>GL_INVALID_VALUE</constant> is generated if <parameter>stride</parameter> is not a multiple
|
|
of four.

</para>
|

<para>

<constant>GL_INVALID_VALUE</constant> is generated if <parameter>drawcount</parameter> is negative.

</para>

<para>
|

<constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION</constant> is generated if no buffer is bound to the <constant>GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER</constant>
|
|
binding, or if such a buffer's data store is currently mapped.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
<constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION</constant> is generated if a non-zero buffer object name is bound to an
|
|
enabled array or to the <constant>GL_DRAW_INDIRECT_BUFFER</constant> binding and the buffer object's data store is currently mapped.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
<constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION</constant> is generated if a geometry shader is active and <parameter>mode</parameter>
|
|
is incompatible with the input primitive type of the geometry shader in the currently installed program object.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
<constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION</constant> is generated if <parameter>mode</parameter> is <constant>GL_PATCHES</constant>

and no tessellation control shader is active.
