如何绘制存储在SSBO中的顶点？

Question

这是OpenGL和AoSoA (混合SoA)格式的数据加载/读取后面的一个问题。

我试图使用着色存储缓冲区对象(SSBO)来存储顶点数据，这是以AoSoA格式表示的。我在绘制顶点时遇到了困难，这显然意味着我在某个地方做错了什么。问题是我似乎弄不清楚是什么或者在哪里。上面最初问题的答案似乎表明，我不应该使用顶点属性数组，所以问题是，考虑到我将要呈现的代码，如何呈现这个SSBO？

VertexData结构

constexpr auto VECTOR_WIDTH = 4;
constexpr auto VERTEX_COUNT = 16;

struct VertexData
{
    std::array<float, VECTOR_WIDTH> px;
    std::array<float, VECTOR_WIDTH> py;
};
// Later stored in a std::vector
std::vector<VertexData> vertices(VERTEX_COUNT / VECTOR_WIDTH);

顶点着色器(这真的应该是一个计算着色器吗？)

struct Vertex4
{
    float px[4]; // position x
    float py[4]; // position y
};

layout(std430, binding=0) buffer VertexData
{
    Vertex4 vertices[];
};

void main()
{
  int dataIx = gl_VertexID / 4;
  int vertexIx = gl_VertexID % 4;
  vec2 vertexPosition = vec2(vertices[dataIx].px[vertexIx], vertices[dataIx].py[vertexIx]);
}

vertexPosition 指定索引

// Do I need this? Where do I use it? glEnableVertexAttribArray(position_attrib_index)?
const GLuint position_attrib_index = 0;
glBindAttribLocation(program, position_attrib_index, "vertexPosition");

SSBO设置

const GLuint ssbo_binding_point = 0;
GLuint ssbo{};
glGenBuffers(1, &ssbo);
glBindBuffer(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, ssbo);
//glBufferStorage(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, vertices.size() * sizeof(VertexData), vertices.data(), GL_MAP_WRITE_BIT);
glBufferData(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, vertices.size() * sizeof(VertexData), vertices.data(), GL_STATIC_DRAW);
const auto block_index = glGetProgramResourceIndex(program, GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BLOCK, "VertexData");
glShaderStorageBlockBinding(program, block_index, ssbo_binding_point);
glBindBufferBase(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, ssbo_binding_point, ssbo);
glBindBuffer(GL_SHADER_STORAGE_BUFFER, 0);

呈现循环

while (!glfwWindowShouldClose(window)) {
    process_input(window);
    glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);

    glUseProgram(program);

    // ???

    glfwSwapBuffers(window);
    glfwPollEvents();
}

我只是不知道这该怎么做。在抓取吸管时，我还尝试创建一个VAO，随后调用glDrawArrays(GL_POINTS, 0, VERTEX_COUNT)，但是它也没有工作：

GLuint vao{};
glGenVertexArrays(1, &vao);
glBindVertexArray(vao);
glEnableVertexAttribArray(position_attrib_index);
glVertexAttribPointer(position_attrib_index, 2, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 0, nullptr);

在我看来，我应该使用position_attrib_index (它应该指向vertexPosition)来做一些事情，问题是什么？

Answer 1

这是使用您拥有的数据进行抽签的正确方法：

glBindVertexArray(vao);
glDrawArrays(GL_POINTS, 0, VERTEX_COUNT);

但是，您的问题是顶点着色器没有写入gl_Position，因此没有任何东西会被光栅化(无论发生什么未定义的行为)。您应该将着色器中顶点的位置设置为：

//...
out gl_PerVertex {
    vec4 gl_Position;
};
void main()
{
    int dataIx = gl_VertexID / 4;
    int vertexIx = gl_VertexID % 4;
    vec2 vertexPosition = vec2(vertices[dataIx].px[vertexIx], vertices[dataIx].py[vertexIx]);
    gl_Position = vec4(vertexPosition, 0, 1);
}

您可以去掉“分配vertexPosition索引”，并且您的VAO不需要任何属性。
