  2. GL2 Shading LanguageBack to the future “As far as generating pictures from data is concerned, we feel the display processor should be a specialized device, capable only of generating pictures from read-only representations in core.” Myer and Sutherland, On the Design of Display Processors.Communications of the ACM, Volume 11 Number 6, June, 1968

  3. GL2 Shading LanguageBack to the future • June 30, 1992 • OpenGL 1.0 Final Draft published

  4. GL2 Shading LanguageBack to the future “OpenGL does not provide a programming language. Its function may be controlled by turning operations on or off or specifying parameters to operations, but the rendering algorithms are essentially fixed. One reason for this decision is that, for performance reasons, graphics hardware is usually designed to apply certain operations in a specific order; replacing these operations with arbitrary algorithms is usually infeasible. Programmability would conflict with keeping the API close to the hardware and thus with the goal of maximum performance.” Segal and Akeley, The Design of the OpenGL Graphics Interface, 1994

  5. GL2 Shading LanguageBack to the future • August 23, 1993 • First OpenGL 1.0 implementation ships

  7. GL2 Shading LanguageBack to the present • February 27, 2003 • arb-gl2 workgroup publishesDraft OpenGL Shading Language • End construction zone

  8. GL2 Shading LanguageBack to the present • October 22, 2004 • Official OpenGL specification published • Authored by Mark Segal & Kurt Akeley

  9. GL2 Shading LanguageOverview • How we replace Fixed Function • Review Shading Language • Shading Language examples

  10. Key Points (1) • Vertex shader replaces fixed vertex processing • Fragment shader replaces fixed fragment processing • Application can pass variables to shaders (including vertices!) • Restricted variable passing to fragment shader

  11. Immediate Mode Per Vertex Operations & Primitive Assembly Polynomial Evaluator DisplayList Per Fragment Operations Frame Buffer CPU Rasterization Texture Memory Pixel Operations OpenGL Architecture

  12. Key Points (2) • Vertex shader bypasses • Vertex Transformation • Normal Transformation, Normalization • Lighting • Texture Coordinate Generation and Transformation • Fragment shader bypasses • Texture accesses & application • Fog

  13. Key Points (3) • OpenGL Shading Language is based on C • Additional data types • Some C++ features • Function overloading • Constructors • Variables declared anywhere

  14. Variable Definitions (1) • Attribute - frequently changing values passed between application and vertex shader • Uniform - infrequently changing values passed between application and both shaders • Varying - output of vertex shader passed to fragment shader

  15. Variable Definitions (2) • Sampler - accesses textures • Built-in - accesses OpenGl state information

  16. Additional Features • Common graphics functionality available from built-in functions • Shader programs are defined as part of OpenGL state • Shaders replace fixed functionality • Cannot mix-n-match functions • Shaders operate independently • Allows for parallelism • Multiple texture accesses allowed
