How to specify buffer offset with PyOpenGL

Question

What is the PyOpenGL equivalent of

#define BUFFER_OFFSET(i) (reinterpret_cast(i))

glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLE_STRIP, count, GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT, B         


        

Answer 1

You're supposed to pass a ctypes void pointer, which can constructed by :

ctypes.c_void_p(offset)

There seems to be a more PyOpenGL specific option using a VBO class, and gotcha with some versions of PyOpenGL according to this.
