Clearing Buffers

[KungFooMasta]

Would be great to have a convenience method to clear buffers. For example, I'm finding issues when loading a .png file into memory, setting pixel values, and saving back out to file.

Can it be done using something like this?

Code: Select all

void* ptr = buf->lock(...);
memset(ptr,0,textureWidth * textureHeight * sizeof(NotSure));
buf->unlock();

Regardless, it would be a simple and convenient function to have for buffers, right? (Solutions to clearing Texture buffers are welcome also )
