<h2>Description</h2>

<p>

<code class="function">glBindVertexBuffer</code> binds the buffer named <em class="parameter"><code>buffer</code></em>

to the vertex buffer binding point whose index is given by <em class="parameter"><code>bindingindex</code></em>.

<em class="parameter"><code>offset</code></em> and <em class="parameter"><code>stride</code></em> specify the offset of the first

element within the buffer and the distance between elements within the buffer, respectively, and

are both measured in basic machine units. <em class="parameter"><code>bindingindex</code></em> must be less than

the value of <code class="constant">GL_MAX_VERTEX_ATTRIB_BINDINGS</code>. <em class="parameter"><code>offset</code></em>

and <em class="parameter"><code>stride</code></em> must be greater than or equal to zero. If <em class="parameter"><code>buffer</code></em>

is zero, then any buffer currently bound to the specified binding point is unbound.

</p>

</div>

<div class="refsect1" id="errors">

<h2>Errors</h2>

<p>

<code class="constant">GL_INVALID_VALUE</code> is generated if <em class="parameter"><code>bindingindex</code></em> is greater than

or equal to the value of <code class="constant">GL_MAX_VERTEX_ATTRIB_BINDINGS</code>.

</p>

<p>

<code class="constant">GL_INVALID_VALUE</code> is generated if <em class="parameter"><code>offset</code></em> or <em class="parameter"><code>stride</code></em>

is less than zero.

</p>

<p>

<code class="constant">GL_INVALID_VALUE</code> is generated if <em class="parameter"><code>buffer</code></em> is not the name of an

existing buffer object.

</p>

<p>

<code class="constant">GL_INVALID_OPERATION</code> is generated if no vertex array object is bound.
