Detailed Description

Namespace with GLSL types.

The sf::Glsl namespace contains types that match their equivalents in GLSL, the OpenGL shading language. These types are exclusively used by the sf::Shader class.

Types that already exist in SFML, such as sf::Vector2<T> and sf::Vector3<T>, are reused as typedefs, so you can use the types in this namespace as well as the original ones. Others are newly defined, such as Glsl::Vec4 or Glsl::Mat3. Their actual type is an implementation detail and should not be used.

All vector types support a default constructor that initializes every component to zero, in addition to a constructor with one parameter for each component. The components are stored in member variables called x, y, z, and w.

All matrix types support a constructor with a float* parameter that points to a float array of the appropriate size (that is, 9 in a 3x3 matrix, 16 in a 4x4 matrix). Furthermore, they can be converted from sf::Transform objects.

◆ Bvec2

typedef Vector2<bool> sf::Glsl::Bvec2

2D bool vector (bvec2 in GLSL)

Definition at line 76 of file Glsl.hpp.

◆ Bvec3

typedef Vector3<bool> sf::Glsl::Bvec3

3D bool vector (bvec3 in GLSL)

Definition at line 94 of file Glsl.hpp.

◆ Bvec4

typedef implementation defined sf::Glsl::Bvec4

4D bool vector (bvec4 in GLSL)

Definition at line 130 of file Glsl.hpp.

◆ Ivec2

typedef Vector2<int> sf::Glsl::Ivec2

2D int vector (ivec2 in GLSL)

Definition at line 70 of file Glsl.hpp.

◆ Ivec3

typedef Vector3<int> sf::Glsl::Ivec3

3D int vector (ivec3 in GLSL)

Definition at line 88 of file Glsl.hpp.

◆ Ivec4

typedef implementation defined sf::Glsl::Ivec4

4D int vector (ivec4 in GLSL)

4D int vectors can be implicitly converted from sf::Color instances. Each color channel remains unchanged inside the integer interval [0, 255].

sf::Glsl::Ivec4 zeroVector;
sf::Glsl::Ivec4 vector(1, 2, 3, 4);
static const Color Cyan
Cyan predefined color.
Definition: Color.hpp:90
implementation defined Ivec4
4D int vector (ivec4 in GLSL)
Definition: Glsl.hpp:124

Definition at line 124 of file Glsl.hpp.

◆ Mat3

typedef implementation defined sf::Glsl::Mat3

3x3 float matrix (mat3 in GLSL)

The matrix can be constructed from an array with 3x3 elements, aligned in column-major order. For example, a translation by (x, y) looks as follows:

float array[9] =
{
1, 0, 0,
0, 1, 0,
x, y, 1
};
sf::Glsl::Mat3 matrix(array);
implementation defined Mat3
3x3 float matrix (mat3 in GLSL)
Definition: Glsl.hpp:155

Mat3 can also be implicitly converted from sf::Transform:

sf::Transform transform;
sf::Glsl::Mat3 matrix = transform;
Define a 3x3 transform matrix.
Definition: Transform.hpp:43

Definition at line 155 of file Glsl.hpp.

◆ Mat4

typedef implementation defined sf::Glsl::Mat4

4x4 float matrix (mat4 in GLSL)

The matrix can be constructed from an array with 4x4 elements, aligned in column-major order. For example, a translation by (x, y, z) looks as follows:

float array[16] =
{
1, 0, 0, 0,
0, 1, 0, 0,
0, 0, 1, 0,
x, y, z, 1
};
sf::Glsl::Mat4 matrix(array);
implementation defined Mat4
4x4 float matrix (mat4 in GLSL)
Definition: Glsl.hpp:181

Mat4 can also be implicitly converted from sf::Transform:

sf::Transform transform;
sf::Glsl::Mat4 matrix = transform;

Definition at line 181 of file Glsl.hpp.

◆ Vec2

typedef Vector2<float> sf::Glsl::Vec2

2D float vector (vec2 in GLSL)

Definition at line 64 of file Glsl.hpp.

◆ Vec3

typedef Vector3<float> sf::Glsl::Vec3

3D float vector (vec3 in GLSL)

Definition at line 82 of file Glsl.hpp.

◆ Vec4

typedef implementation defined sf::Glsl::Vec4

4D float vector (vec4 in GLSL)

4D float vectors can be implicitly converted from sf::Color instances. Each color channel is normalized from integers in [0, 255] to floating point values in [0, 1].

sf::Glsl::Vec4 zeroVector;
sf::Glsl::Vec4 vector(1.f, 2.f, 3.f, 4.f);
implementation defined Vec4
4D float vector (vec4 in GLSL)
Definition: Glsl.hpp:110
