interface IModelGeometrySimple extends IModelGeometry

Attributes

IndexCount

The vertex index count.

property IndexCount { get }
type int32
value [>=0] The vertex index count. Will be 0 iff ReadIndices returns null.
inherited IModelGeometry.IndexCount

InstanceBuffer

The resource handle that returns an IGeometryBuffer object that holds instance data to use for this model geometry object.

property InstanceBuffer { get }
type IResourceHandle
value The instance buffer to use for geometry instancing or null if geometry instancing is disabled for this model geometry object.
inherited IModelGeometry.InstanceBuffer

Lines

The primitive batch that represents the edge lines.

property Lines { get }
type PrimitiveBatch
value The batch.

Triangles

The primitive batch that represents the surface triangles.

property Triangles { get }
type PrimitiveBatch
value The batch.

VertexCount

The vertex count.

property VertexCount { get }
type int32
value [>0] The vertex count.
inherited IModelGeometry.VertexCount

VertexFormat

The vertex format flags.

property VertexFormat { get }
type ModelVertexFormat
value The format flags.
inherited IModelGeometry.VertexFormat

Methods

CreateResource

Creates a new resource object, using the given graphics context.

[OwnerReturn]
method CreateResource (Graphics graphics)
type IResource
params graphics [not-null] The graphics context to use.
returns The resource object or null.
inherited IResourceHandle.CreateResource

Remarks:

Resource objects may implement the IMemoryConsumption interface. In this case, the reported memory consumption will be interpreted as an estimate on how much GPU memory is consumed by the resource. This estimate can then be used for resource caching (e.g. CacheMemory).

Equals

Compares this object with the given one.

[Pure]
method Equals (T other)
type bool
params other The object to compare to.
returns true if this object is equal to other, false if not.
inherited IEquatable.Equals

ReadIndices

Read vertex index data.

method ReadIndices ()
type int32[]
returns The vertex index data or null iff IndexCount returns 0 (i.e. the geometry is not indexed).
inherited IModelGeometry.ReadIndices

ReadVertices

Reads vertex data.

method ReadVertices ()
type VertexArrays
returns [not-null] The vertex data array.
inherited IModelGeometry.ReadVertices

UseGeometryInstancing

Configures geometry instancing for this model geometry.

method UseGeometryInstancing (IResourceHandle instanceBuffer)
type IModelGeometry
params instanceBuffer The resource handle that returns an IVertexBuffer object that holds instance data to use for this model geometry object or null to disable geometry instancing. The instanceBuffer value will be returned by the IModelGeometry property of the returned model geometry object.
returns [not-null] The resulting model geometry.
inherited IModelGeometry.UseGeometryInstancing
