material.data#setDataBuffer

Summary

material.data#setDataBuffer selects an external GPUBuffer as the data source, drops the CPU array, and derives record count from buffer.size, stride, and offset. The buffer is borrowed: replacing or destroying the material does not destroy it. The caller must provide storage-buffer usage and keep it alive while used.

Syntax

DataMaterial.setDataBuffer(buffer: GPUBuffer): void
material.setDataBuffer(buffer);

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
buffer	GPUBuffer	Yes	Borrowed buffer with GPUBufferUsage.STORAGE; its size must cover complete records for the active transform layout.
