Detailed Description
A QParameter can be referenced by a QRenderPass, QTechnique, QEffect, QMaterial, QTechniqueFilter, QRenderPassFilter. At runtime, depending on which shader is selected for a given step of the rendering, the value contained in a QParameter will be converted and uploaded if the shader contains a uniform with a name matching that of the QParameter.
QParameter *param = new QParameter(); param->setName(QStringLiteral("diffuseColor")); param->setValue(QColor::fromRgbF(0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f)); // Alternatively you can create and set a QParameter this way QParameter *param2 = new QParameter(QStringLiteral("diffuseColor"), QColor::fromRgbF(0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f)); // Such QParameters will work with the following GLSL uniform shader declarations // uniform vec4 diffuseColor; // uniform vec3 diffuseColor; // uniform vec2 diffuseColor; // uniform float diffuseColor;
Note: some care must be taken to ensure the value wrapped by a QParameter can actually be converted to what the real uniform expect. Giving a value stored as an int where the actual shader uniform is of type float could result in undefined behaviors.
Note: when the targeted uniform is an array, the name should be the name of the uniform with [0] appended to it.
Note: QParameter node can not be disabled.
QParameter *param = new QParameter(); QVariantList values = QVariantList() << 0.0f << 1.0f << 2.0f << 3.0f << 4.0f << 883.0f << 1340.0f << 1584.0f; param->setName(QStringLiteral("diffuseValues[0]")); param->setValue(values); // Matching GLSL shader uniform declaration // uniform float diffuseValues[8];
When it comes to texture support, the QParameter value should be set to the appropriate QAbstractTexture subclass that matches the sampler type of the shader uniform.
QTexture2D *texture = new QTexture2D(); ... QParameter *param = new QParameter(); param->setName(QStringLiteral("diffuseTexture")); param->setValue(QVariant::fromValue(texture)); // Works with the following GLSL uniform shader declaration // uniform sampler2D diffuseTexture
