一.元素缓冲对象

元素缓冲对象(Element Buffer Object，EBO)，也叫索引缓冲对象(Index Buffer Object，IBO)。假设我们不再绘制一个简单三角形而是绘制一个矩形。我们可以绘制两个三角形来组成一个矩形（OpenGL主要处理三角形）。这会生成下面的顶点的集合：

float vertices[] = {
    // 第一个三角形
    0.5f, 0.5f, 0.0f,   // 右上角
    0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f,  // 右下角
    -0.5f, 0.5f, 0.0f,  // 左上角
    // 第二个三角形
    0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f,  // 右下角
    -0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f, // 左下角
    -0.5f, 0.5f, 0.0f   // 左上角
};

可以看到，有几个顶点叠加了。我们指定了右下角和左上角两次！一个矩形只有4个而不是6个顶点，这样就产生50%的额外开销。当我们有包括上千个三角形的模型之后这个问题会更糟糕，这会产生一大堆浪费。更好的解决方案是只储存不同的顶点，并设定绘制这些顶点的顺序。这样子我们只要储存4个顶点就能绘制矩形了，之后只要指定绘制的顺序就行了。

元素缓冲区对象的工作方式正是如此。 EBO是一个缓冲区，就像一个顶点缓冲区对象一样，它存储 OpenGL 用来决定要绘制哪些顶点的索引。这种所谓的索引绘制(Indexed Drawing)正是我们问题的解决方案。首先，我们先要定义（不重复的）顶点，和绘制出矩形所需的索引：

float vertices[] = {
    0.5f, 0.5f, 0.0f,   // 右上角
    0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f,  // 右下角
    -0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f, // 左下角
    -0.5f, 0.5f, 0.0f   // 左上角
};

unsigned int indices[] = {
    // 注意索引从0开始! 
    // 此例的索引(0,1,2,3)就是顶点数组vertices的下标，
    // 这样可以由下标代表顶点组合成矩形

    0, 1, 3, // 第一个三角形
    1, 2, 3  // 第二个三角形
};

你可以看到，当使用索引的时候，我们只定义了4个顶点，而不是6个。下一步我们需要创建元素缓冲对象：

unsigned int EBO;
glGenBuffers(1, &EBO);

与VBO类似，我们先绑定EBO然后用glBufferData把索引复制到缓冲里。同样，和VBO类似，我们会把这些函数调用放在绑定和解绑函数调用之间，只不过这次我们把缓冲的类型定义为GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER。

glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, EBO);
glBufferData(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(indices), indices, GL_STATIC_DRAW);

注意：我们传递了GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER当作缓冲目标。最后一件要做的事是用glDrawElements来替换glDrawArrays函数，表示我们要从索引缓冲区渲染三角形。使用glDrawElements时，我们会使用当前绑定的索引缓冲对象中的索引进行绘制：

glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, EBO);
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLES, 6, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, 0);

 第一个参数指定了我们绘制的模式，这个和glDrawArrays的一样。第二个参数是我们打算绘制顶点的个数，这里填6，也就是说我们一共需要绘制6个顶点。第三个参数是索引的类型，这里是GL_UNSIGNED_INT。最后一个参数里我们可以指定EBO中的偏移量（或者传递一个索引数组，但是这是当你不在使用索引缓冲对象的时候），但是我们会在这里填写0。

glDrawElements函数从当前绑定到GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER目标的EBO中获取其索引。这意味着我们每次想要使用索引渲染对象时都必须绑定相应的EBO，这又有点麻烦。碰巧顶点数组对象也跟踪元素缓冲区对象绑定。在绑定VAO时，绑定的最后一个元素缓冲区对象存储为VAO的元素缓冲区对象。然后，绑定到VAO也会自动绑定该EBO。

最后的初始化和绘制代码现在看起来像这样：

// ..:: 初始化代码 :: ..
// 1. 绑定顶点数组对象
glBindVertexArray(VAO);
// 2. 把我们的顶点数组复制到一个顶点缓冲中，供OpenGL使用
glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, VBO);
glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(vertices), vertices, GL_STATIC_DRAW);
// 3. 复制我们的索引数组到一个索引缓冲中，供OpenGL使用
glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, EBO);
glBufferData(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(indices), indices, GL_STATIC_DRAW);
// 4. 设定顶点属性指针
glVertexAttribPointer(0, 3, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 3 * sizeof(float), (void*)0);
glEnableVertexAttribArray(0);

[...]

// ..:: 绘制代码（渲染循环中） :: ..
glUseProgram(shaderProgram);
glBindVertexArray(VAO);
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLES, 6, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, 0);
glBindVertexArray(0);

运行后的结果如下所示：

二.线框模式绘制(Wireframe Mode) 

要想用线框模式绘制你的三角形，我们可以通过glPolygonMode(GL_FRONT_AND_BACK, GL_LINE)函数配置OpenGL如何绘制图元。第一个参数表示我们打算将其应用到所有的三角形的正面和背面，第二个参数告诉我们用线来绘制。之后的绘制调用会一直以线框模式绘制三角形，直到我们用glPolygonMode(GL_FRONT_AND_BACK, GL_FILL)将其设置回默认模式。

设置线框模式后我们的代码看起来像这样：

// set up vertex data (and buffer(s)) and configure vertex attributes
    // ------------------------------------------------------------------
    float vertices[] = {
         0.5f,  0.5f, 0.0f,  // top right
         0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f,  // bottom right
        -0.5f, -0.5f, 0.0f,  // bottom left
        -0.5f,  0.5f, 0.0f   // top left 
    };
    unsigned int indices[] = {  // note that we start from 0!
        0, 1, 3,  // first Triangle
        1, 2, 3   // second Triangle
    };
    unsigned int VBO, VAO, EBO;
    glGenVertexArrays(1, &VAO);
    glGenBuffers(1, &VBO);
    glGenBuffers(1, &EBO);
    // bind the Vertex Array Object first, then bind and set vertex buffer(s), and then configure vertex attributes(s).
    glBindVertexArray(VAO);

    glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, VBO);
    glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(vertices), vertices, GL_STATIC_DRAW);

    glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, EBO);
    glBufferData(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(indices), indices, GL_STATIC_DRAW);

    glVertexAttribPointer(0, 3, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 3 * sizeof(float), (void*)0);
    glEnableVertexAttribArray(0);

    // note that this is allowed, the call to glVertexAttribPointer registered VBO as the vertex attribute's bound vertex buffer object so afterwards we can safely unbind
    glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, 0);

    // remember: do NOT unbind the EBO while a VAO is active as the bound element buffer object IS stored in the VAO; keep the EBO bound.
    //glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, 0);

    // You can unbind the VAO afterwards so other VAO calls won't accidentally modify this VAO, but this rarely happens. Modifying other
    // VAOs requires a call to glBindVertexArray anyways so we generally don't unbind VAOs (nor VBOs) when it's not directly necessary.
    glBindVertexArray(0);


    // uncomment this call to draw in wireframe polygons.
    glPolygonMode(GL_FRONT_AND_BACK, GL_LINE);

 运行后的结果如下：

    glViewport(0, 0, width, height);
}

 三.绘制两个彼此相连的三角形

        我们首先定义两个三角形的顶点，由于我们是绘制两个三角形，因此我们需要定义六个点

 float vertices[] = {
        // first triangle
        -0.9f, -0.5f, 0.0f,  // left 
        -0.0f, -0.5f, 0.0f,  // right
        -0.45f, 0.5f, 0.0f,  // top 
        // second triangle
         0.0f, -0.5f, 0.0f,  // left
         0.9f, -0.5f, 0.0f,  // right
         0.45f, 0.5f, 0.0f   // top 
    };

其他流程继续使用我们之前的图形绘制逻辑，完整的代码看起来像这样：

{
    // make sure the viewport matches the new window dimensions; note that width and 
    // height will be significantly larger than specified on retina displays.
    glViewport(0, 0, width, height);
}

 运行之后的结果如下：

如果我们设置了线框模式，则看起来像这样：

我们看到第一个三角形的右顶点和第二个三角形的左顶点重复了，为了减小额外开销，我们采用索引进行绘制。

 我们首先定义不重复的顶点和索引：

 float vertices[] = {
        // first triangle
        -0.9f, -0.5f, 0.0f,  // first 
         -0.45f, 0.5f, 0.0f,  // second 
        -0.0f, -0.5f, 0.0f,  // third
         0.9f, -0.5f, 0.0f,  // four
         0.45f, 0.5f, 0.0f   // five
    };
    unsigned int indices[] = {  // note that we start from 0!
        0, 1, 2,  // first Triangle
        2, 3, 4   // second Triangle
    };

接下来定义VAO，VBO ，EBO并进行链接：

 unsigned int VBO, VAO, EBO;
    glGenVertexArrays(1, &VAO);
    glGenBuffers(1, &VBO);
    glGenBuffers(1, &EBO);
    // bind the Vertex Array Object first, then bind and set vertex buffer(s), and then configure vertex attributes(s).
    glBindVertexArray(VAO);

    glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, VBO);
    glBufferData(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(vertices), vertices, GL_STATIC_DRAW);

    glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, EBO);
    glBufferData(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, sizeof(indices), indices, GL_STATIC_DRAW);

    glVertexAttribPointer(0, 3, GL_FLOAT, GL_FALSE, 3 * sizeof(float), (void*)0);
    glEnableVertexAttribArray(0);

    // note that this is allowed, the call to glVertexAttribPointer registered VBO as the vertex attribute's bound vertex buffer object so afterwards we can safely unbind
    glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, 0);

    // remember: do NOT unbind the EBO while a VAO is active as the bound element buffer object IS stored in the VAO; keep the EBO bound.
    //glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, 0);

    // You can unbind the VAO afterwards so other VAO calls won't accidentally modify this VAO, but this rarely happens. Modifying other
    // VAOs requires a call to glBindVertexArray anyways so we generally don't unbind VAOs (nor VBOs) when it's not directly necessary.
    glBindVertexArray(0);

绘制方式也进行修改：

  glBindVertexArray(VAO); // seeing as we only have a single VAO there's no need to bind it every time, but we'll do so to keep things a bit more organized
        //glDrawArrays(GL_TRIANGLES, 0, 6);
        glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, 6, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, 0);

我们运行我们的程序，输出两个相连的三角形
