Name
glDrawElements — render primitives from array data

C Specification
void glDrawElements( GLenum mode,
GLsizei count,
GLenum type,
const void * indices);

Parameters
mode
Specifies what kind of primitives to render. Symbolic constants GL_POINTS, GL_LINE_STRIP, GL_LINE_LOOP, GL_LINES, GL_LINE_STRIP_ADJACENCY, GL_LINES_ADJACENCY, GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, GL_TRIANGLE_FAN, GL_TRIANGLES, GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP_ADJACENCY, GL_TRIANGLES_ADJACENCY and GL_PATCHES are accepted.

count
Specifies the number of elements to be rendered.

type
Specifies the type of the values in indices. Must be one of GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT, or GL_UNSIGNED_INT.

indices
Specifies a pointer to the location where the indices are stored.

Description
glDrawElements specifies multiple geometric primitives with very few subroutine calls. Instead of calling a GL function to pass each individual vertex, normal, texture coordinate, edge flag, or color, you can prespecify separate arrays of vertices, normals, and so on, and use them to construct a sequence of primitives with a single call to glDrawElements.

When glDrawElements is called, it uses count sequential elements from an enabled array, starting at indices to construct a sequence of geometric primitives. mode specifies what kind of primitives are constructed and how the array elements construct these primitives. If more than one array is enabled, each is used.

Vertex attributes that are modified by glDrawElements have an unspecified value after glDrawElements returns. Attributes that aren’t modified maintain their previous values.

Notes
GL_LINE_STRIP_ADJACENCY, GL_LINES_ADJACENCY, GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP_ADJACENCY and GL_TRIANGLES_ADJACENCY are available only if the GL version is 3.2 or greater.

Errors
GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if mode is not an accepted value.

GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if count is negative.

GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if a geometry shader is active and mode is incompatible with the input primitive type of the geometry shader in the currently installed program object.

GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if a non-zero buffer object name is bound to an enabled array or the element array and the buffer object’s data store is currently mapped.

翻译

函数作用：使用count个元素定义一个几何序列，这些元素的索引值保存在indices数组中。
参数说明：
mode:接受的值和在glBegin()中接受的值一样，可以是GL_POLYGON、GL_TRIANGLES、GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP、GL_LINE_STRIP等。

count：组合几何图形的元素的个数，一般是点的个数。

type:indeices数组的数据类型，既然是索引，一般是整型的。

indices:索引数组

描述

GLDraweElements通过很少的子例程调用指定多个几何原语。不需要调用GL函数来传递每个单独的顶点、法线、纹理坐标、边标志或颜色，您可以预先指定顶点、法线等的单独数组，并使用它们通过对GLDrainElements的单个调用来构造一系列基本体图元。

当调用GLDraweElements时，它使用已启用数组中的计数顺序元素，从索引开始构造几何图元序列。模式指定构造哪种基本体以及数组元素如何构造这些基本体图元。如果启用了多个数组，则使用每个数组GLDrainElements修改的顶点属性在GLDrainElements返回后具有未指定的值。未修改的属性将保持其以前的值。

注意

仅当GL版本为3.2或更高版本时，GL_LINE_STRIP_ADJACENCY, GL_LINES_ADJACENCY, GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP_ADJACENCY and GL_TRIANGLES_ADJACENCY 才可用。

错误

如果模式不是可接受的值，则生成GL_INVALID_ENUM 。
如果计数为负数，则生成GL_INVALID_VALUE 。
如果非零缓冲区对象名称绑定到启用的数组或元素数组，并且缓冲区对象的数据存储当前已映射，则会生成GL_INVALID_操作。
