Recently, I began to study OpenGL, and I am beginning to study its new assets. Some time ago I tried to work with VBOs to draw a simple cube from an array of vertex points. I am having trouble displaying it and understanding some of the arguments in functions. This does not cause errors, but in my opinion is worth nothing.
float cubeVertPoints[72];
Here is my VBO init
void loadBufferData()
{
glGenBuffers(1, &cubeVBO);
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, cubeVBO);
glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(cubeVertPoints[0])*3, &cubeVertPoints[0], GL_STATIC_DRAW);
glEnableVertexAttribArray(0);
glVertexAttribPointer(0, 3, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, sizeof(cubeVertPoints[0])*3, (void*)sizeof(GL_FLOAT));
}
Drawing
glMatrixMode(GL_PROJECTION);
glLoadIdentity();
glOrtho(-ratio, ratio, -1.f, 1.f, 1.f, -1.f);
glMatrixMode(GL_MODELVIEW);
glLoadIdentity();
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, cubeVBO);
glEnableVertexAttribArray(0);
glVertexAttribPointer(0, 3, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, sizeof(cubeVertPoints[0])*3, (void*)sizeof(GL_FLOAT));
glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLES, 0, 1);
glDisableVertexAttribArray(0);
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, 0);
