Detailed Description

Factory class for IShaderManager objects.

Material and texture map plug-ins based on programmable shaders need to create an IShaderManager for each of the shaders they use. The plug-in is responsible for destroying the IShaderManager instance. Call IShaderManagerCreator::GetInstance() to access the sole instance of IShaderManagerCreator.

Member Function Documentation

◆ CreateShaderManager()

virtual IShaderManager* CreateShaderManager ( IShaderManager::ShaderType  type,
const MCHAR className,
const MCHAR shaderFileName,
ReferenceTarget pRefTarget 
)
pure virtual

Creates an IShaderManager object based on a programmable shader.

Currently only MetaSL shaders are supported. A MetaSL shader's code is stored in a file. The shader itself has a type and a class name. The plug-in is responsible for the life-time management of the IShaderManager instance created by this method.

Parameters
[in]typeThe type of the shader. Currently only MetaSL is supported.
[in]classNameThe shader's class name.
[in]shaderFileNameFully qualified file path of the file that stores the shader's code. For a MetaSL shader this must be an xmsl file.
[in]pRefTargetA pointer to the material or texture map plug-in the IShaderManager is created for.
Returns
A valid IShaderManager instance, or NULL in case of an error such as when the specified shader file is not found. See IShaderManager for a code example of how to use this method.

◆ DeleteShaderManager()

virtual void DeleteShaderManager ( IShaderManager pShaderGraphManager)
pure virtual

Deletes an IShaderManager instance.

Material and texture map plug-ins that created IShaderManager instances need to call this function in order to delete them properly.

Parameters
[in]pShaderGraphManagerthe instance of IShaderManager.

◆ GetInstance()

static IShaderManagerCreator* GetInstance ( )
inlinestatic

Retrieves the sole instance of IShaderManagerCreator.
