FieldTarget

enum class MayaFlux::Kinesis::FieldTarget : uint16_t

What a Tendency drives when applied to a vertex record.

A bitmask. One field may drive several attributes from a single bind, which is a convenience on the CPU path and a requirement on the GPU one: a DualField emits exactly one GLSL function, so binding the same field twice through separate calls would be a redefinition. Binding once against a mask emits the function once and calls it per target bit.

The listed bits correspond to the vertex attributes in the offset table shared by VertexLayout::for_points, for_lines, for_meshes and for_raw. That list is not a closed set: targets outside it are expected, and an operator that cannot drive one either ignores it or rejects the bind with a diagnostic naming the bit. Validity is a property of the operator and the layout it addresses, not of the enum.

op->bind(FieldTarget::POSITION | FieldTarget::NORMAL, displacement);
