## Member Enumeration Documentation

enum Ogre::HardwareBuffer::LockOptions`[inherited]`

Locking options.

Enumerator:

  HBL_NORMAL | Normal mode, ie allows read/write and contents are preserved.
  HBL_DISCARD | Discards the entire buffer while locking; this allows optimisation to be performed because synchronisation issues are relaxed. Only allowed on buffers created with the HBU_DYNAMIC flag.
  HBL_READ_ONLY | Lock the buffer for reading only. Not allowed in buffers which are created with HBU_WRITE_ONLY. Mandatory on static buffers, i.e. those created without the HBU_DYNAMIC flag.
  HBL_NO_OVERWRITE | As HBL_NORMAL, except the application guarantees not to overwrite any region of the buffer which has already been used in this frame, can allow some optimisation on some APIs.

Definition at line 120 of file OgreHardwareBuffer.h.

enum Ogre::HardwareBuffer::Usage`[inherited]`

Enums describing buffer usage; not mutually exclusive.

Enumerator:

  HBU_STATIC | Static buffer which the application rarely modifies once created. Modifying the contents of this buffer will involve a performance hit.
  HBU_DYNAMIC | Indicates the application would like to modify this buffer with the CPU fairly often. Buffers created with this flag will typically end up in AGP memory rather than video memory.
  HBU_WRITE_ONLY | Indicates the application will never read the contents of the buffer back, it will only ever write data. Locking a buffer with this flag will ALWAYS return a pointer to new, blank memory rather than the memory associated with the contents of the buffer; this avoids DMA stalls because you can write to a new memory area while the previous one is being used.

  HBU_DISCARDABLE

  Indicates that the application will be refilling the contents of the buffer regularly (not just updating, but generating the contents from scratch), and therefore does not mind if the contents of the buffer are lost somehow and need to be recreated.

  This allows and additional level of optimisation on the buffer. This option only really makes sense when combined with HBU_DYNAMIC_WRITE_ONLY.

  HBU_STATIC_WRITE_ONLY | Combination of HBU_STATIC and HBU_WRITE_ONLY.
  HBU_DYNAMIC_WRITE_ONLY | Combination of HBU_DYNAMIC and HBU_WRITE_ONLY. If you use this, strongly consider using HBU_DYNAMIC_WRITE_ONLY_DISCARDABLE instead if you update the entire contents of the buffer very regularly.
  HBU_DYNAMIC_WRITE_ONLY_DISCARDABLE | Combination of HBU_DYNAMIC, HBU_WRITE_ONLY and HBU_DISCARDABLE.

## Member Function Documentation

virtual void Ogre::HardwareBuffer::_updateFromShadow | ( | void |  | ) | `[virtual, inherited]`

Updates the real buffer from the shadow buffer, if required.

Definition at line 295 of file OgreHardwareBuffer.h.

virtual void Ogre::HardwareBuffer::copyData | ( | HardwareBuffer & | srcBuffer,
|  | size_t | srcOffset,
|  | size_t | dstOffset,
|  | size_t | length,
|  | bool | discardWholeBuffer = `false`
| ) |  | `[virtual, inherited]`

Copy data from another buffer into this one.

Remarks:
  Note that the source buffer must not be created with the usage HBU_WRITE_ONLY otherwise this will fail.

Parameters:

  srcBuffer | The buffer from which to read the copied data
  srcOffset | Offset in the source buffer at which to start reading
  dstOffset | Offset in the destination buffer to start writing
  length | Length of the data to copy, in bytes.
  discardWholeBuffer | If true, will discard the entire contents of this buffer before copying

Definition at line 274 of file OgreHardwareBuffer.h.

References Ogre::HardwareBuffer::lock(), and Ogre::HardwareBuffer::unlock().

virtual void Ogre::HardwareBuffer::copyData | ( | HardwareBuffer & | srcBuffer | ) | `[virtual, inherited]`

Copy all data from another buffer into this one.

Remarks:
  Normally these buffers should be of identical size, but if they're not, the routine will use the smallest of the two sizes.
