Cogl.AttributeBuffer.new_with_size
Description: Reference for Cogl.AttributeBuffer.new_with_size

### Constructor

# Cogl AttributeBuffernew_with_size

#### Declaration [src]

    CoglAttributeBuffer*
    cogl_attribute_buffer_new_with_size (
      CoglContext* context,
      size_t bytes
    )

#### Description [src]

Describes a new `CoglAttributeBuffer` of `size` bytes to contain arrays of vertex attribute data. Afterwards data can be set using `cogl_buffer_set_data()` or by mapping it into the application’s address space using cogl_buffer_map().

The underlying storage of this buffer isn’t allocated by this function so that you have an opportunity to use the `cogl_buffer_set_update_hint()` functions which may influence how the storage is allocated. The storage will be allocated once you upload data to the buffer.

Note: You can assume this function always succeeds and won’t return `NULL`.

#### Parameters

`context`

  Type: `CoglContext`

  A `CoglContext`.

  The data is owned by the caller of the function.

`bytes`

  Type: `size_t`

  The number of bytes to allocate for vertex attribute data.

#### Return value

Type: `CoglAttributeBuffer`

A newly allocated `CoglAttributeBuffer`. Never `NULL`.

The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
