Synopsis

ALLEGRO_INDEX_BUFFER* al_create_index_buffer(int index_size,
    const void* initial_data, int num_indices, int flags)

Description

Creates a index buffer. Can return NULL if the buffer could not be created (e.g. the system only supports write-only buffers).

Note:

This is an advanced feature, often unsupported on lower-end video cards. Be extra mindful of this function failing and make arrangements for fallback drawing functionality or a nice error message for users with such lower-end cards.
