Member Function Documentation

IsTypeOf()

static vtkTypeBool vtkOpenGLRenderUtilities::IsTypeOf ( const char *  type )

static

IsA()

virtual vtkTypeBool vtkOpenGLRenderUtilities::IsA ( const char *  name )

virtual

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class.

Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObjectBase.

SafeDownCast()

static vtkOpenGLRenderUtilities * vtkOpenGLRenderUtilities::SafeDownCast ( vtkObjectBase *  o )

NewInstanceInternal()

virtual vtkObjectBase * vtkOpenGLRenderUtilities::NewInstanceInternal ( ) const

protectedvirtual

NewInstance()

(

const

PrintSelf()

void vtkOpenGLRenderUtilities::PrintSelf ( ostream &  os, vtkIndent  indent  )

overridevirtual

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses.

Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

RenderQuad()

static void vtkOpenGLRenderUtilities::RenderQuad ( float *  verts, float *  tcoords, vtkShaderProgram *  program, vtkOpenGLVertexArrayObject *  vao  )

static

Helper function that draws a quad on the screen at the specified vertex coordinates and if tcoords are not NULL with the specified texture coordinates.

RenderTriangles()

static void vtkOpenGLRenderUtilities::RenderTriangles ( float *  verts, unsigned int  numVerts, GLuint *  iboData, unsigned int  numIndices, float *  tcoords, vtkShaderProgram *  program, vtkOpenGLVertexArrayObject *  vao  )

static

Helper function that draws a quad on the screen at the specified vertex coordinates and if tcoords are not NULL with the specified texture coordinates.

GetFullScreenQuadVertexShader()

static std::string vtkOpenGLRenderUtilities::GetFullScreenQuadVertexShader ( )

static

Draw a full-screen quad:

• VertexShader and GeometryShader should be used as-is when building the ShaderProgram.
• FragmentShaderTemplate supports the replacements

  //VTK::FSQ::Decl 

  and

  //VTK::FSQ::Impl 

  for declaring variables and the shader body, respectively.
• The varying texCoord is available to the fragment shader for texture lookups into full-screen textures, ie. texture2D(textureName, texCoord).
• PrepFullScreenVAO initializes a new VAO for drawing a quad.
• DrawFullScreenQuad actually draws the quad.

Example usage:

typedef vtkOpenGLRenderUtilities GLUtil;
 
// Prep fragment shader source:
std::string fragShader = GLUtil::GetFullScreenQuadFragmentShaderTemplate();
vtkShaderProgram::Substitute(fragShader, "//VTK::FSQ::Decl",
"uniform sampler2D aTexture;");
vtkShaderProgram::Substitute(fragShader, "//VTK::FSQ::Impl",
"gl_FragData[0] = texture2D(aTexture, texCoord);");
 
// Create shader program:
vtkShaderProgram *prog = shaderCache->ReadyShaderProgram(
GLUtil::GetFullScreenQuadVertexShader().c_str(),
fragShader.c_str(),
GLUtil::GetFullScreenQuadGeometryShader().c_str());
 
// Initialize new VAO/vertex buffer. This is only done once:
vtkNew<vtkOpenGLVertexArrayObject> vao;
GLUtil::PrepFullScreenVAO(renWin, vao.Get(), prog);
 
// Setup shader program to sample vtkTextureObject aTexture:
aTexture->Activate();
prog->SetUniformi("aTexture", aTexture->GetTextureUnit());
 
// Render the full-screen quad:
vao->Bind();
GLUtil::DrawFullScreenQuad();
vao->Release();
aTexture->Deactivate();

GLUtil::GetFullScreenQuadVertexShader().c_str(),
fragShader.c_str(),
GLUtil::GetFullScreenQuadGeometryShader().c_str());
 
// Initialize new VAO/vertex buffer. This is only done once:
vtkNew<vtkOpenGLVertexArrayObject> vao;
GLUtil::PrepFullScreenVAO(renWin, vao.Get(), prog);
 
// Setup shader program to sample vtkTextureObject aTexture:
