Constructors

ShaderParser()

Initializes a new instance of the class and discovers all available shader files.

public ShaderParser()

Fields

ExpectedShaderVersion

The GLSL version directive that must appear as the first line of every shader file.

public const string ExpectedShaderVersion = "#version 460"

Field Value

string

ShaderDirectory

The embedded-resource namespace prefix used to locate shader files in the assembly manifest.

public const string ShaderDirectory = "Renderer.Shaders."

Field Value

string

Properties

AvailableShaders

Gets the map from shader base names to a bool array indicating which pipeline stages (vertex, fragment, compute) exist on disk or in the assembly manifest.

public Dictionary<string, bool[]> AvailableShaders { get; }

Property Value

Dictionary<string, bool[]>

Methods

ClearBuilder()

Clears the internal so it is ready for the next preprocessing pass.

public void ClearBuilder()

PreprocessShader(string, ParsedShaderData)

Reads and preprocesses a shader source file, resolving includes and extracting defines, render modes, and uniform names into parsedData.

public string PreprocessShader(string shaderFile, ShaderLoader.ParsedShaderData parsedData)

Parameters

shaderFile string

The shader file path or embedded resource name (e.g. complex.vert.slang).

parsedData ShaderLoader.ParsedShaderData

The data container that accumulates extracted metadata across all stages.

Returns

string

The preprocessed GLSL source text ready for driver compilation.
