Parameters

dataType

Type: OooglesVertexAttributeDataType
the data type of the each component of the vertex attribute. For example, an attribute of type Vector3 contains components of type Float.

numValuesPerVertex

Type: SystemInt32
the number of values (components) of the vertex attribute. For example, an attribute of type Vector3 contains 3 values. Valid values are 1, 2, 3 and 4.

data

Type: T
client data array containing the vertices.

stride (Optional)

Type: SystemInt32
(optional) byte offset between consecutive vertex attributes. If stride is 0 (the default), the generic vertex attributes are understood to be tightly packed in the array.

normalized (Optional)

Type: SystemBoolean
(optional) flag that specifies whether integer values will be normalized. If set to True, integer values are be mapped to the range [-1,1] (for signed values) or [0,1] (for unsigned values) when they are accessed and converted to floating point. Otherwise (default), values will be converted to floats directly without normalization.

Type Parameters

T

The type of elements in the data array.

There is an overloaded version of this method SetDataT(T, Int32, Boolean) where data is an array of values of generic type T. That version is less efficient though.
