Detailed Description

Class for handling shaders.

Member Function Documentation

load()

void load	(	const char *	vfile,
		const char *	ffile,
		const char *	gfile = nullptr,
		const char *	tcfile = nullptr,
		const char *	tefile = nullptr
	)

Load from file, compile, and link vertex and fragment shader, and optional geometry and tessellation shaders.

Unused shaders should be nullptr.

vfile	string with the address to the vertex shader
ffile	string with the address to the fragment shader
gfile	filename of geometry shader
tcfile	filename of tessellation control shader
tefile	filename of tessellation evaluation shader

set_uniform() [1/6]

void set_uniform	(	const char *	name,
		const mat3 &	mat
	)

Parameters

name	string of the uniform name
mat	the value for the uniform

set_uniform() [2/6]

void set_uniform	(	const char *	name,
		const mat4 &	mat
	)
