Hello, I am writing here with a question which was haunting me lately.
I want to draw some dynamic data using a VAO, but I am not pretty sure how to do it. Doing it the regular dynamic/stream VBO way it works, but when I do it with a VAO I need to bind the buffer I want to change and while using gDebugger I found out that those binds in dynamic/stream functions are pretty expensive and gDebugger doesn't recommend using those, so I want to know how should I draw a dynamic VBOs in a VAO?
Thanks in advance!
Andrew.
[GL3] VAO and VBO question about dynamic/stream buffers

There's no way around a glBindBuffer though.

Thanks for an answer. I know how to stream the buffers with the bind. My question is about how to avoid the bind, or it is unavoidable. :?
the most common way "around bind," is to put many meshes into a single VBO, and render different parts of the data using glDrawArrays ..., first_vertex, count (or elements)
