I am trying to render a cylinder in OpenGL, by first starting to render top and lower caps using TRIANGLE_FAN. I store all the vertex data in one VBO and create two index buffers one for each cap. The top cap gets rendered correctly however the low cap does not get rendered at all, you can see it in the snapshot.
Here is my client application.

I have checked my vertex data generating functions and they are correct.
Here is the snapshot of my result.
CodePudding user response：
Only 1index buffer can be bound at a time. You need 2 draw calls and must bind the index buffer before the draw call:
glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, indexBufferHandle);
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLE_FAN, topCapIndexData.size(), GL_UNSIGNED_INT, nullptr);
glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, lowCapIndexBufferHandle);
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLE_FAN, lowCapIndexData.size(), GL_UNSIGNED_INT, nullptr);
Alternatively you can put the list of indices in 1 buffer and separate them with a Primitive Restart index.
GLuint restartIndex = 0xffffffff;
std::vector<GLuint> indices = topCapIndexData;
indices.push_back(restartIndex);
indices.insert(indices.end(), lowCapIndexBufferHandle.begin(), lowCapIndexBufferHandle.end();
GLuint indexBufferHandle;
glGenBuffers(1, &indexBufferHandle);
glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, indexBufferHandle);
glBufferData(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, indices.size() * sizeof(GLuint), indices.data(), GL_STATIC_DRAW);
glEnable(GL_PRIMITIVE_RESTART);
glPrimitiveRestartIndex(restartIndex);
glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLE_FAN, indices.size(), GL_UNSIGNED_INT, nullptr);
