WebGL2RenderingContext.isVertexArray()

This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

The WebGL2RenderingContext.isVertexArray() method of the WebGL API returns true if the passed object is a valid WebGLVertexArrayObject object.

Syntax

GLBoolean gl.isVertexArray(vertexArray);

Parameters

vertexArray
A WebGLVertexArrayObject (VAO) object to test.

Return value

A GLboolean indicating whether the given object is a valid WebGLVertexArrayObject object (true) or not (false).

Examples

var vao = gl.createVertexArray();
gl.bindVertexArray(vao);

// ...

gl.isVertexArray(vao);
