Methods

staticIndexDatatype.createTypedArray(numberOfVertices, indicesLengthOrArray) → Uint16Aray|Uint32Array

Creates a typed array that will store indices, using either or Uint32Array depending on the number of vertices.

Name	Type	Description
numberOfVertices	Number	Number of vertices that the indices will reference.
indicesLengthOrArray	Any	Passed through to the typed array constructor.

Returns:

A Uint16Array or Uint32Array constructed with indicesLengthOrArray.

Example:

this.indices = Cesium.IndexDatatype.createTypedArray(positions.length / 3, numberOfIndices);

staticIndexDatatype.getSizeInBytes(indexDatatype) → Number

Returns the size, in bytes, of the corresponding datatype.

Name	Type	Description
indexDatatype	IndexDatatype	The index datatype to get the size of.

Returns:

The size in bytes.

Example:

// Returns 2
var size = Cesium.IndexDatatype.getSizeInBytes(Cesium.IndexDatatype.UNSIGNED_SHORT);

staticIndexDatatype.validate(indexDatatype) → Boolean

Validates that the provided index datatype is a valid IndexDatatype.

Name	Type	Description
indexDatatype	IndexDatatype	The index datatype to validate.

Returns:

true if the provided index datatype is a valid value; otherwise, false.

Example:

if (!Cesium.IndexDatatype.validate(indexDatatype)) {
  throw new Cesium.DeveloperError('indexDatatype must be a valid value.');
}
