Detailed Description

class ShaderString : public RED::String 

ARB shader programs construction helper.

Shader programming at the pseudo assembly level of the OpenGL ARB language usually involves a lot of repetitive small operations. The aim of this class is to provide a basic function package making shader easier to write.

The ShaderString is used in the following workflow:

Start a vertex or a pixel shader program with a call to RED::ShaderString::VertexShaderStart or to RED::ShaderString::PixelShaderStart.
Program your shader program body using the corresponding set of functions,
End your shader with RED::ShaderString::ShaderEnd.

The ShaderString does not declare temporaries it uses. These must be declared by the caller. The ShaderString uses “R0”, “R1”, “R2”… as temporaries. The number of temporaries and their names are specified for each routine of the class.

Public Functions

virtual void *As(const RED::CID &iCID)

Converts the object to an instance of the given type.

Parameters: iCID – Requested class.
Returns: An object pointer of the given class on success, NULL otherwise.

virtual const void *As(const RED::CID &iCID) const

Converts the object to an instance of the given type.

Parameters: iCID – Requested class.
Returns: An object pointer of the given class on success, NULL otherwise.

template<class T_As> inline T_As *As()

template<class T_As> inline const T_As *As() const

ShaderString(): ShaderString construction method.

virtual ~ShaderString(): ShaderString destruction method.

RED_RC VertexShaderStart()

Starts an ARB 1.0 vertex shader string.

!!ARBvp1.0

Clears the string contents and adds the vertex shader header.

See also \ref wf_cartoon_shading.

RED_RC PixelShaderStart()

Start an ARB 1.0 pixel shader string.

!!ARBfp1.0

Clears the string and adds the pixel shader header.

See also \ref wf_cartoon_shading.

RED_RC SoftShaderStart(const RED::String &iLibrary, const RED::String &iLabel, const RED::Version &iVersion)

Starts a built-in software shader.

!!REDShader:iLibrary:iLabel:iVersion

Clears the string and adds the soft shader startup label. The iLabel method must point to a function whose prototype is defined according to the software tracer shading prototype:

typedef RED_RC (*SOFT_SHADER_CALLBACK)( RED::SoftFrameBufferSample        ioFrameBufferSample,
                                        const RED::ISoftRayContext&       iRayContext,
                                        const RED::ISoftShaderContext&    iShaderContext,
                                        const RED::ISoftRenderingContext& iRenderingContext,
                                        const RED::Version&               iVersion );

Note that iLibrary and iLabel can’t contain any ‘:’ character as this would cause a misleading interpretation of the shader header.

If both iLibrary and iLabel are defined, the engine will try to load the dynamic library named iLibrary and look for the iLabel entry point in it. This will be our shading function.

If iLibrary is set to an empty string and iLabel is defined, the engine will look for a registered shading callback called iLabel in the resource manager (users can register their own shading callbacks using RED::IResourceManager::RegisterShadingCallback).

See also \ref wf_cartoon_shading.

Parameters

iLibrary – file name of the library where the shading method is located.
iLabel – name of the shading method to invoke in the given library.
iVersion – version of the shader. If the shader implementation does not support this shader version, RED::IWindow::FrameTracing will return a RED_MAT_SOFT_SHADER_UNSUPPORTED_VERSION error.

Returns

RED_OK if the method has succeeded,

RED_BAD_PARAM if the method has received an invalid string parameter containing a ‘:’ character,

RED_ALLOC_FAILURE if a memory allocation has failed.

RED_RC GeometryShaderStart(const RED::String &iLibrary, const RED::String &iLabel, const RED::Version &iVersion)

Starts a custom geometry vertex shader.

!!REDShaderGeometry:iLibrary:iLabel:iVersion

Clears the string and adds the shader startup label for a custom geometry vertex shader rendered in software. The iLabel method must point to a function whose prototype is defined according to the geometry shader vertex shading prototype.

This kind of shader is needed for the rendering of double precision geometries on legacy RED::HARDWARE_PLATFORM graphic cards that have no native double precision support. It can also be used for displacement mapping purposes or dynamic geometry handling.

Parameters
