Bug 612

GL2ES2.glVertexAttribPointer() comes in two versions, one that takes a Buffer and one that takes a long.  The long is interpreted as an offset in a bound VBO.  In the latest OpenGL, glVertexAttribIPointer() is also supposed to be able to take an offset that's just an integer, but JOGL's GL interfaces do not expose a version of the method that does that.  It appears that the same problem exists with glVertexAttribLPointer(), incidentally.

In the thread http://forum.jogamp.org/Where-is-glVertexAttribIPointer-that-doesn-t-take-a-Buffer-td4026005.html , Sven Gothel comments:

I see, the code generation for this method doesn't match the GL3 spec, 
where (both) glVertexAttribIPointer(..)'s and glVertexAttribPointer(..)'s 
'void *pointer' argument is an offset to a bound VBO (GL_ARRAY_BUFFER). 

GL2 spec (and the GL2/GL3 compatibility profile) define 
glVertexAttribPointer(..)'s 'void *pointer' argument 
either as a direct data source, _or_ as an offset if a VBO (GL_ARRAY_BUFFER) is bound.
