Diligent::IBuffer struct
#include <Graphics/GraphicsEngine/interface/Buffer.h>

Buffer interface.

Defines the methods to manipulate a buffer object

Base classes

struct IDeviceObject: Base interface for all objects created by the render device Diligent::IRenderDevice.

struct IBufferD3D11: Exposes Direct3D11-specific functionality of a buffer object.
struct IBufferD3D12: Exposes Direct3D12-specific functionality of a buffer object.
struct IBufferGL: Exposes OpenGL-specific functionality of a buffer object.
class IBufferMtl: Exposes Metal-specific functionality of a buffer object.
struct IBufferVk: Exposes Vulkan-specific functionality of a buffer object.

auto GetDesc() const -> const BufferDesc&METHOD() override: Returns the buffer description used to create the object.
auto CreateView(const BufferViewDesc& ViewDesc, IBufferView** ppView) -> void METHOD() virtual: Creates a new buffer view.
auto GetDefaultView(BUFFER_VIEW_TYPE ViewType) -> IBufferView*METHOD() virtual: Returns the pointer to the default view.
auto GetNativeHandle() -> void*METHOD() virtual: Returns native buffer handle specific to the underlying graphics API.
auto SetState(RESOURCE_STATE State) -> void METHOD() virtual: Sets the buffer usage state.
auto GetState() const -> RESOURCE_STATE METHOD() virtual: Returns the internal buffer state.

Creates a new buffer view.

Parameters
ViewDesc in	- View description. See Diligent::BufferViewDesc for details.
ppView out	- Address of the memory location where the pointer to the view interface will be written to.

Returns the pointer to the default view.

Parameters
ViewType in	- Type of the requested view. See Diligent::BUFFER_VIEW_TYPE.
Returns	Pointer to the interface

Returns native buffer handle specific to the underlying graphics API.

Returns	pointer to ID3D11Resource interface, for D3D11 implementation pointer to ID3D12Resource interface, for D3D12 implementation GL buffer handle, for GL implementation

Sets the buffer usage state.
