DESCRIPTION

  This module provides an extensible abstraction for managing OpenGL shaders.

  Requires OpenGL v0.56 or newer.

SYNOPSIS

  ##########
  # Load and manage a shader
  use OpenGL(':all');
  use OpenGL::Shader;

  # Note: these APIs/methods requires a current GL context/window
  glutInit();
  glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_RGBA);
  glutInitWindowSize($w,$h);
  my $Window_ID = glutCreateWindow( "OpenGL::Shader test" );

  # Get a hashref of shader types
  my $shaders = $OpenGL::Shader::GetTypes();

  # Test for shader support
  my $ok = OpenGL::Shader::HasType('Cg');


  # Instantiate a shader - list acceptable shaders by priority
  my $shdr = new OpenGL::Shader('GLSL','ARB');

  # Get shader type and version
  my $type = $shdr->GetType();
  my $ver = $shdr->GetVersion();

  # Load shader by strings
  my $stat = $shdr->Load($fragment,$vertex);

  # Load shader by file
  my $stat = $shdr->LoadFiles($fragment_file,$vertex_file);

  # Enable
  $shdr->Enable();


  # Get vertex attribute ID
  # returns undef if not supported or not found
  my $attr_id = $self->MapAttr($attr_name);
  glVertexAttrib4fARB($attr_id,$x,$y,$z,$w);

  # Get Global Variable ID (uniform/local)
  my $var_id = $self->Map($var_name);

  # Set float4 vector variable
  $stat = $self->SetVector($var_name,$x,$y,$z,$w);

  # Set float4x4 matrix via OGA
  $stat = $self->SetMatrix($var_name,$oga);


  # Do GL rendering


  # Disable
  $shdr->Disable();

  # Done
  glutDestroyWindow($Window_ID);
