In order to allow the Vertecies to be uploaded to the GPU without side-effects directly it would be beneficial to make Vector3 and Vector2 POD types.
eg.: instead of:
struct Vector2
{
[...]
// Bool Equals Operator Overload
bool operator==(const Vector2& other) const
{
return (this->X == other.X && this->Y == other.Y);
}
[...]
float x,y,z;
};like this:
struct Vector2
{
float x,y,z;
};
inline bool operator==(const Vector2& lhs,const Vector2& rhs)
{
return (lhs.X == rhs.X && lhs.Y == rhs.Y);
}Although a little more complicated, it allows the compiler to more efficiently pack the data and thus one could directly generate vertexArrays by using offsetof()
