Detailed Description

A group of manually updated parameters that are shared between many parameter sets.

Sometimes you want to set some common parameters across many otherwise different parameter sets, and keep them all in sync together. This class allows you to define a set of parameters that you can share across many parameter sets and have the parameters that match automatically be pulled from the shared set, rather than you having to set them on all the parameter sets individually.

: Parameters in a shared set are matched up with instances in a GpuProgramParameters structure by matching names. It is up to you to define the named parameters that a shared set contains, and ensuring the definition matches.

Note: Shared parameter sets can be named, and looked up using the GpuProgramManager.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ GpuSharedParameters()

Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::GpuSharedParameters ( const String & name )

Member Function Documentation

◆ getName()

const String & Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::getName ( )

inline

Get the name of this shared parameter set.

Referenced by Ogre::GpuSharedParametersUsage::getName().

◆ addConstantDefinition()

void Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::addConstantDefinition	(	const String &	name,
		GpuConstantType	constType,
		uint32	arraySize = `1`
	)

Add a new constant definition to this shared set of parameters.

Unlike GpuProgramParameters, where the parameter list is defined by the program being compiled, this shared parameter set is defined by the user. Only parameters which have been predefined here may be later updated.

◆ removeConstantDefinition()

void Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::removeConstantDefinition ( const String & name )

Deprecated:: removing a constant requires a full rebuild due to changed alignments

◆ removeAllConstantDefinitions()

void Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::removeAllConstantDefinitions ( )

Remove a constant definition from this shared set of parameters.

◆ getVersion()

uint32 Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::getVersion ( ) const

inline

Get the version number of this shared parameter set, can be used to identify when changes have occurred.

◆ calculateSize()

size_t Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::calculateSize ( void ) const

Calculate the expected size of the shared parameter buffer based on constant definition data types.

◆ isDirty()

bool Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::isDirty ( ) const

inline

True if this parameter set is dirty (values have been modified, but the render system has not updated them yet).

◆ _markClean()

void Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::_markClean ( )

Mark the shared set as being clean (values successfully updated by the render system).

You do not need to call this yourself. The set is marked as clean whenever the render system updates dirty shared parameters.

◆ _markDirty()

void Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::_markDirty ( )

Mark the shared set as being dirty (values modified and not yet updated in render system).

You do not need to call this yourself. The set is marked as dirty whenever setNamedConstant or (non const) getFloatPointer et al are called.

◆ getConstantDefinitionIterator()

GpuConstantDefinitionIterator Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::getConstantDefinitionIterator ( void ) const

Deprecated:: use getConstantDefinitions()

◆ getConstantDefinition()

const GpuConstantDefinition & Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::getConstantDefinition ( const String & name ) const

Get a specific GpuConstantDefinition for a named parameter.

◆ getConstantDefinitions()

const GpuNamedConstants & Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::getConstantDefinitions ( ) const

Get the full list of GpuConstantDefinition instances.

◆ setNamedConstant() [1/9]

template<typename T >

void Ogre::GpuSharedParameters::setNamedConstant	(	const String &	name,
		T	val
	)

inline

Sets a single value constant parameter to the program.

Different types of GPU programs support different types of constant parameters. For example, it's relatively common to find that vertex programs only support floating point constants, and that fragment programs only support integer (fixed point) parameters. This can vary depending on the program version supported by the graphics card being used. You should consult the documentation for the type of low level program you are using, or alternatively use the methods provided on RenderSystemCapabilities to determine the options.

Another possible limitation is that some systems only allow constants to be set on certain boundaries, e.g. in sets of 4 values for example. Again, see RenderSystemCapabilities for full details.

Note: This named option will only work if you are using a parameters object created from a high-level program (HighLevelGpuProgram).

Parameters

name	The name of the parameter
val	The value to set
