Member Function Documentation

QSGMaterialShader::QSGMaterialShader()

Creates a new QSGMaterialShader.

[virtual] void QSGMaterialShader::activate()

This function is called by the scene graph to indicate that geometry is about to be rendered using this shader.

State that is global for all uses of the shader, independent of the geometry that is being drawn, can be setup in this function.

[pure virtual] const char *const *QSGMaterialShader::attributeNames() const

Returns a zero-terminated array describing the names of the attributes used in the vertex shader.

This function is called when the shader is compiled to specify which attributes exist. The order of the attribute names defines the attribute register position in the vertex shader.

[virtual protected] void QSGMaterialShader::compile()

This function is called when the shader is initialized to compile the actual QOpenGLShaderProgram. Do not call it explicitly.

The default implementation will extract the vertexShader() and fragmentShader() and bind the names returned from attributeNames() to consecutive vertex attribute registers starting at 0.

[virtual] void QSGMaterialShader::deactivate()

This function is called by the scene graph to indicate that geometry will no longer to be rendered using this shader.

[virtual protected] const char *QSGMaterialShader::fragmentShader() const

Called when the shader is being initialized to get the fragment shader source code.

The contents returned from this function should never change.

[virtual protected] void QSGMaterialShader::initialize()

Reimplement this function to do one-time initialization when the shader program is compiled. The OpenGL shader program is compiled and linked, but not bound, when this function is called.

QOpenGLShaderProgram *QSGMaterialShader::program()

Returns the shader program used by this QSGMaterialShader.

[protected] void QSGMaterialShader::setShaderSourceFile(QOpenGLShader::ShaderType type, const QString &sourceFile)

Sets the GLSL source file for the shader stage type to sourceFile. The default implementation of the vertexShader() and fragmentShader() functions will load the source files set by this function.

This function is useful when you have a single source file for a given shader stage. If your shader consists of multiple source files then use setShaderSourceFiles()

See also setShaderSourceFiles(), vertexShader(), and fragmentShader().

[protected] void QSGMaterialShader::setShaderSourceFiles(QOpenGLShader::ShaderType type, const QStringList &sourceFiles)

Sets the GLSL source files for the shader stage type to sourceFiles. The default implementation of the vertexShader() and fragmentShader() functions will load the source files set by this function in the order given.

See also setShaderSourceFile(), vertexShader(), and fragmentShader().

[virtual] void QSGMaterialShader::updateState(const RenderState &state, QSGMaterial *newMaterial, QSGMaterial *oldMaterial)

This function is called by the scene graph before geometry is rendered to make sure the shader is in the right state.

The current rendering state is passed from the scene graph. If the state indicates that any state is dirty, the updateState implementation must update accordingly for the geometry to render correctly.

The subclass specific state, such as the color of a flat color material, should be extracted from newMaterial to update the color uniforms accordingly.

The oldMaterial can be used to minimze state changes when updating material states. The oldMaterial is 0 if this shader was just activated.

See also activate() and deactivate().

[virtual protected] const char *QSGMaterialShader::vertexShader() const

Called when the shader is being initialized to get the vertex shader source code.

The contents returned from this function should never change.
