NAME

       ALLEGRO_PRIM_BUFFER_FLAGS - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS

              #include <allegro5/allegro_primitives.h>

              typedef enum ALLEGRO_PRIM_BUFFER_FLAGS

DESCRIPTION

       Flags to specify how to create a vertex or an index buffer.

       • ALLEGRO_PRIM_BUFFER_STREAM  -  Hints  to the driver that the buffer is written to often,
         but used only a few times per frame

       • ALLEGRO_PRIM_BUFFER_STATIC - Hints to the driver that the buffer is written to once  and
         is used often

       • ALLEGRO_PRIM_BUFFER_DYNAMIC  -  Hints  to the driver that the buffer is written to often
         and is used often

       • ALLEGRO_PRIM_BUFFER_READWRITE - Specifies that you  want  to  be  able  read  from  this
         buffer.   By  default this is disabled for performance.  Some platforms (like OpenGL ES)
         do  not  support  reading  from  vertex  buffers,  so  if  you   pass   this   flag   to
         al_create_vertex_buffer or al_create_index_buffer the call will fail.
