Shader





Shaders can be use to produce special effects directly on the system graphic card instead of producing them with the CPU with a t‌_‌b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌p‌i‌x‌e‌l‌a‌r‌r‌a‌y.

Graphic cards work incredibely fast compared to the main CPU when it cames to graphics.

Shaders are programmed with the GLSL programming language, which is syntaxically close to C but have its specificities.
You can find example of shaders in the LibLapin repository.

The shader module header is lapin/shader.h

Description

     The t‌_‌b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌s‌h‌a‌d‌e‌r type is an abstract type that can only be manipulated throught Bunny Shader functions.
It is created throught b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌n‌e‌w‌_‌s‌h‌a‌d‌e‌r, configured throught b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌l‌o‌a‌d‌_‌s‌h‌a‌d‌e‌r and destroyed with b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌d‌e‌l‌e‌t‌e‌_‌s‌h‌a‌d‌e‌r.

INDEX


Description

     In most vertex and fragment shaders, we can find parameters that must be sent from the cpu-side program. This function serve this purpose: it allows you to sent values inside the graphic card from your program.

Parameters




INDEX


Description

     This function is the exact equivalent of one of the main LibLapin function: b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌b‌l‌i‌t. If you do not know this function, please read its manual.

The only difference stands with the additionnal shader parameter which implies the shader will be executed. If you have defined with b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌s‌h‌a‌d‌e‌r‌_‌s‌e‌t‌_‌v‌a‌r‌i‌a‌b‌l‌e a BVT_CURRENT_TEXTURE_TYPE and you should have done it, then the picture parameter will be sent to the variable you configured.

Caution: This function currently break the inheritence rule: the target cannot be a t‌_‌b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌p‌i‌x‌e‌l‌a‌r‌r‌a‌y, even if there is a t‌_‌b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌b‌u‌f‌f‌e‌r inside a t‌_‌b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌p‌i‌x‌e‌l‌a‌r‌r‌a‌y.
In the same fashion, picture, even if t‌_‌b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌p‌i‌c‌t‌u‌r‌e is a typedef on t‌_‌b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌c‌l‌i‌p‌a‌b‌l‌e and t‌_‌b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌p‌i‌x‌e‌l‌a‌r‌r‌a‌y have a t‌_‌b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌c‌l‌i‌p‌a‌b‌l‌e inside, this is not compatible. The picture parameter must be a t‌_‌b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌p‌i‌c‌t‌u‌r‌e created by a b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌l‌o‌a‌d‌_‌p‌i‌c‌t‌u‌r‌e.

INDEX


Description

     Read the sent structure and generate the associated shader. Multiples calls to b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌s‌c‌r‌e‌e‌n‌_‌t‌w‌e‌a‌k‌_‌s‌h‌a‌d‌e‌r will not generate several shader: the returned one is kept in memory and reconfigured each time. It is automatically freed when your program exit, but you can force its release by sending NULL as bst.

Parameters


Return value

This function returns a valid t‌_‌b‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌s‌h‌a‌d‌e‌r pointer on success. NULL on failure. If you send NULL as bst, then it will always return NULL.


Error values and logs

On error, $Vb‌u‌n‌n‌y‌_‌e‌r‌r‌n‌o is set to:


  • ENOMEM:

    A fragment shader was expected.


Logs written by this function are tagged with the "ressource", "graphics" and/or "shader" label.




INDEX


Description

     This function set all fields inside the bst structure with default values. Those default values make the screen tweak shader completly useless: it won't change anything to what is displayed.

This is useful so you can only use a single transformation or several but don't have to neuter the one you do not use yourself.
