public final class VertexAttribute

Object
VertexAttribute

Describes a single attribute (position, normal, texture coordinate, color) within a VertexFormat. The engine derives the generated shader’s vertex inputs from the attributes present in the format, which is why a fixed set of well known usages is used rather than free form names.

Nested types

enum VertexAttribute.Usage The semantic meaning of a vertex attribute.

Constructors

public VertexAttribute(VertexAttribute.Usage usage, int components) Creates a float backed attribute.

Methods

`public` `VertexAttribute.Usage getUsage()`	Returns the semantic usage of this attribute.
`public int getComponents()`	Returns the number of float components in this attribute.
