Unigine::StructuredBuffer Class

Header:

#include <UnigineTextures.h>

StructuredBuffer is a buffer for structures: it represents a uniform array of structures.

StructuredBuffer resource can specified via the following flags:

GPU_RESOURCE specifies a resource that can be read and written by the GPU. It also creates a temporary direct staging buffer to copy the data from the main buffer and gets the data by the CPU.
IMMUTABLE specifies a resources that can only be read by the GPU. It also creates a temporary direct staging buffer to copy the data from the main buffer and gets the data by the CPU.
CPU_RESOURCE specifies a resource that is accessible by both the GPU (read only mode) and the CPU (write only mode). It also creates a temporary direct staging buffer to copy the data from the main buffer and gets the data by the CPU.
STAGING specifies a resource that supports direct data transfer from the GPU to CPU.
