Description

RaeptorCogs::GAPI::Common::Shader

Shader interface.
class Shader : public RaeptorCogs::GAPI::Common::ObjectData

Shader interface.

Provides a common interface for shader management.

Note

This is an abstract base class and should be inherited by specific shader implementations.

Subclassed by RaeptorCogs::GAPI::GL::Shader, RaeptorCogs::GAPI::Vulkan::Shader

Public Functions

Shader() = default

Default constructor.

virtual ~Shader() = default

Virtual destructor.

virtual void build(const char *vertexSource, const char *fragmentSource) = 0

Build the shader program from source code.

Note

Must be implemented by derived classes.

Parameters:

  • vertexSource – Source code for the vertex shader.

  • fragmentSource – Source code for the fragment shader.

virtual void setBool(const std::string &name, bool value) const = 0

Set a boolean uniform variable.

Note

Must be implemented by derived classes.

Parameters:

  • name – Name of the uniform variable.

  • value – Boolean value to set.

virtual void setInt(const std::string &name, int value) const = 0

Set an integer uniform variable.

Note

Must be implemented by derived classes.

Parameters:

  • name – Name of the uniform variable.

  • value – Integer value to set.

virtual void setUInt(const std::string &name, unsigned int value) const = 0

Set an unsigned integer uniform variable.

Note

Must be implemented by derived classes.

Parameters:

  • name – Name of the uniform variable.

  • value – Unsigned integer value to set.

virtual void setFloat(const std::string &name, float value) const = 0

Set a float uniform variable.

Note

Must be implemented by derived classes.

Parameters:

  • name – Name of the uniform variable.

  • value – Float value to set.

virtual void setVec2(const std::string &name, const glm::vec2 &value) const = 0

Set a vec2 uniform variable.

Note

Must be implemented by derived classes.

Parameters:

  • name – Name of the uniform variable.

  • value – vec2 value to set.

virtual void setVec3(const std::string &name, const glm::vec3 &value) const = 0

Set a vec3 uniform variable.

Note

Must be implemented by derived classes.

Parameters:

  • name – Name of the uniform variable.

  • value – vec3 value to set.

virtual void setVec4(const std::string &name, const glm::vec4 &value) const = 0

Set a vec4 uniform variable.

Note

Must be implemented by derived classes.

Parameters:

  • name – Name of the uniform variable.

  • value – vec4 value to set.

virtual void setMat2(const std::string &name, const glm::mat2 &mat) const = 0

Set a mat2 uniform variable.

Note

Must be implemented by derived classes.

Parameters:

  • name – Name of the uniform variable.

  • mat – mat2 value to set.

virtual void setMat3(const std::string &name, const glm::mat3 &mat) const = 0

Set a mat3 uniform variable.

Note

Must be implemented by derived classes.

Parameters:

  • name – Name of the uniform variable.

  • mat – mat3 value to set.

virtual void setMat4(const std::string &name, const glm::mat4 &mat) const = 0

Set a mat4 uniform variable.

Note

Must be implemented by derived classes.

Parameters:

  • name – Name of the uniform variable.

  • mat – mat4 value to set.
