NAME
glTexBuffer, glTextureBuffer - attach a buffer object's data store to a buffer texture
object
C SPECIFICATION
void glTexBuffer(GLenum target, GLenum internalFormat, GLuint buffer);
void glTextureBuffer(GLuint texture, GLenum internalformat, GLuint buffer);
PARAMETERS
target
Specifies the target to which the texture is bound for glTexBuffer. Must be
GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER.
texture
Specifies the texture object name for glTextureBuffer.
internalFormat
Specifies the internal format of the data in the store belonging to buffer.
buffer
Specifies the name of the buffer object whose storage to attach to the active buffer
texture.
DESCRIPTION
glTexBuffer and glTextureBuffer attaches the data store of a specified buffer object to a
specified texture object, and specify the storage format for the texture image found found
in the buffer object. The texture object must be a buffer texture.
If buffer is zero, any buffer object attached to the buffer texture is detached and no new
buffer object is attached. If buffer is non-zero, it must be the name of an existing
buffer object.
internalformat specifies the storage format, and must be one of the following sized
internal formats:
internalformat specifies the storage format, and must be one of the following sized
internal formats:

When a buffer object is attached to a buffer texture, the buffer object's data store is
taken as the texture's texel array. The number of texels in the buffer texture's texel
array is given by $$ \left\lfloor { size \over { components \times sizeof(base\_type) } }
\right\rfloor $$ where $size$ is the size of the buffer object in basic machine units (the
value of GL_BUFFER_SIZE for buffer), and $components$ and $base\_type$ are the element
count and base data type for elements, as specified in the table above. The number of
texels in the texel array is then clamped to the value of the implementation-dependent
limit GL_MAX_TEXTURE_BUFFER_SIZE. When a buffer texture is accessed in a shader, the
results of a texel fetch are undefined if the specified texel coordinate is negative, or
greater than or equal to the clamped number of texels in the texel array.
ERRORS
GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated by glTexBuffer if target is not GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER.
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated by glTextureBuffer if texture is not the name of an
existing texture object.
GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated by glTextureBuffer if the effective target of texture is not
GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER.
GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if internalformat is not one of the sized internal formats
described above.
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if buffer is not zero and is not the name of an existing
buffer object.
ASSOCIATED GETS
glGet() with argument GL_MAX_TEXTURE_BUFFER_SIZE
glGet() with argument GL_TEXTURE_BINDING_BUFFER
glGetTexLevelParameter() with argument GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER_DATA_STORE_BINDING
