Detailed Description

base class for any sort of buffer type - pinned, device, managed, ...

Member Typedef Documentation

SP

typedef std::shared_ptr<Buffer> owl::Buffer::SP

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Buffer()

owl::Buffer::Buffer	(	Context *const	context,
		OWLDataType	type
	)

construct a new buffer of given type - actual implementation of 'construct' done in derives class

~Buffer()

owl::Buffer::~Buffer ( )

virtual

destructor - free device data, de-regsiter, and destruct

Member Function Documentation

createOn()

RegisteredObject::DeviceData::SP owl::Buffer::createOn ( const DeviceContext::SP &  device )

override

creates the device-specific data for this group

destroy()

void owl::Buffer::destroy

(

)

destroy whatever resouces this buffer may own on the device, but do NOT destroy this class itself. baiscally that's a resize(0), but that buffer can not - and shoult not - be used any more after that

destroy whatever resouces this buffer's ll-layer handle this may refer to; this will not destruct the current object itself, but should already release all its references

getDD()

Buffer::DeviceData & owl::Buffer::getDD ( const DeviceContext::SP &  device ) const

inline

get reference to given device-specific data for this object

getElementCount()

size_t owl::Buffer::getElementCount ( ) const

inline

return number of elements - number of bytes will depend on data type

getPointer()

const void * owl::Buffer::getPointer ( const DeviceContext::SP &  device ) const

inline

get device pointer for given buffer

resize()

virtual void owl::Buffer::resize ( size_t  newElementCount )

pure virtual

resize buffer to new num elements

Implemented in owl::GraphicsBuffer, owl::ManagedMemoryBuffer, owl::HostPinnedBuffer, and owl::DeviceBuffer.

sizeInBytes()

size_t owl::Buffer::sizeInBytes ( ) const

inline

return the number of bytes in this buffer (coiuted in size of device types)

toString()

std::string owl::Buffer::toString ( ) const

overridevirtual

pretty-printer, for printf-debugging

Reimplemented from owl::Object.

Reimplemented in owl::GraphicsBuffer, owl::ManagedMemoryBuffer, owl::HostPinnedBuffer, and owl::DeviceBuffer.

upload() [1/2]

virtual void owl::Buffer::upload ( const int  deviceID, const void *  hostPtr  )

pure virtual

upload data from host, to only given device ID

Implemented in owl::GraphicsBuffer, owl::ManagedMemoryBuffer, owl::HostPinnedBuffer, and owl::DeviceBuffer.

upload() [2/2]

virtual void owl::Buffer::upload ( const void *  hostPtr )

pure virtual

upload data from host, using as many bytes as required by elemnetCount and dataSize

Implemented in owl::GraphicsBuffer, owl::ManagedMemoryBuffer, owl::HostPinnedBuffer, and owl::DeviceBuffer.

Member Data Documentation

elementCount

size_t owl::Buffer::elementCount { 0 }

number of elements

type

const OWLDataType owl::Buffer::type

data type of elements contained in this buffer
