Type Definition ggez::graphics::Shader

type Shader<C> = ShaderGeneric<GlBackendSpec, C>;

A Shader represents a handle to a user-defined shader that can be used with a ggez graphics context

Methods

impl<C> Shader<C> where
    C: 'static + Pod + Structure<ConstFormat> + Clone + Copy, 

pub fn new<P: AsRef<Path>, S: Into<String>>(
    ctx: &mut Context,
    vertex_path: P,
    pixel_path: P,
    consts: C,
    name: S,
    blend_modes: Option<&[BlendMode]>
) -> GameResult<Shader<C>>

Create a new Shader given a gfx pipeline object

In order to use a specific blend mode when this shader is being used, you must include that blend mode as part of the blend_modes parameter at creation. If None is given, only the default Alpha blend mode is used.

pub fn from_u8<S: Into<String>>(
    ctx: &mut Context,
    vertex_source: &[u8],
    pixel_source: &[u8],
    consts: C,
    name: S,
    blend_modes: Option<&[BlendMode]>
) -> GameResult<Shader<C>>

Create a new Shader directly from source given a gfx pipeline object

In order to use a specific blend mode when this shader is being used, you must include that blend mode as part of the blend_modes parameter at creation. If None is given, only the default Alpha blend mode is used.

pub fn send(&self, ctx: &mut Context, consts: C) -> GameResult<()>

Send data to the GPU for use with the Shader

pub fn shader_id(&self) -> ShaderId

Gets the shader ID for the Shader which is used by the GraphicsContext for identifying shaders in its cache
