finite_render_get_shader_code

Note

finite_render_get_shader_code was last modifed in v0.6.0

The finite_render_get_shader_code function attempts to get shader code and convert it into bytes.

Parameters

Type	Decription
char *fileName	The file to get shader code from.
uint32_t *pShaderSize	Size of the shader code

Code Example

#include <finite/render.h>
#include <finite/log.h>

// load shaders
uint32_t vertSize;
char *vertCode = finite_render_get_shader_code("vert.spv", &vertSize);
bool success = finite_render_get_shader_module(render, vertCode, vertSize);

if (!success) {
    FINITE_LOG_ERROR("Unable to create Vertex Shader Module");
    return -1;
}

uint32_t fragSize;
char *fragCode = finite_render_get_shader_code("frag.spv", &fragSize);
success = finite_render_get_shader_module(render, fragCode, fragSize);

if (!success) {
    FINITE_LOG_ERROR("Unable to create Fragment Shader Module");
    return -1;
}

Notes

finite_render_get_shader_code requires precompiled shaders in order to work.

Standard Usage

This function requires you to get the shader’s file size.
