class ShaderParameterTable

ShaderParameterTable keeps information on shader parameter used while setting up compute casting using the material evaluation shader.

Properties

PropertyDescription
NameThe name of the ShaderParameterTable object. (Inherited from Object)

Methods

MethodDescription
AddItemAdds an item to the table. The returned value is the id of the item within the table, which can be used to retrieve the item using GetItem(). (Inherited from Table)
AddObserverAdds a user-defined observer object to the interface, that will receive events from the interface. (Inherited from Object)
AddShaderParameterAdds a shader to the table. The returned value is the id of the parameter within the table.
ClearClears the table, and removes all items. If AddItem is called after Clear, the item ids will start over from 0. (Inherited from Table)
CopyClears the current table and copies the items from a source table. (Inherited from Table)
FindItemFinds a named item in the table. If multiple items have the same name, the first will be returned. If no item was found, null will be returned. (Inherited from Table)
FindItemIdFinds the id of an item in the table, using the name. If multiple items have the same name, the first will be returned. If no item was found, the return will be -1. (Inherited from Table)
FindShaderParameterFinds a parameter in the table, using the parameter name. Note names are unique
FindShaderParameterIdFinds the id of a parameter in the table, using the parameter name. Note parameter names are unique.
GetClassGet the name of the ShaderParameterTable class. (Inherited from Object)
GetItemReturns the i:th item, using the id of the item. (Inherited from Table)
GetItemsCountThe number of item id:s in the table. If an item has been removed, using RemoveItem, the id is still counted in this method. GetIdsCount also equals the id that will be applied to the next item added to the table. (Inherited from Table)
GetShaderParameterReturns the i:th parameter, using the id of the parameter.
GetShaderParametersCountReturns the number of parameters in the table.
IsAReturns true if ShaderParameterTable is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. (Inherited from Object)
IsNullReturns true if the ShaderParameterTable object is invalid. (Inherited from Object)
IsSameObjectAsReturns true if the ShaderParameterTable object is valid. (Inherited from Object)
NonNullReturns true if the ShaderParameterTable object is valid. (Inherited from Object)
PrintInfoPrints the content/info of the ShaderParameterTable object to the log. (Inherited from Object)
RemoveItemRemoves an item, and invalidates the id. The id will not point at a valid item, until Clear is called and new items are added up until the id. (Inherited from Table)
RemoveObserverRemoves a previously added observer object. (Inherited from Object)
RemoveShaderParameterRemoves a parameter. If GetShaderParameter is called with the parameter id, the value returned will be null.
SetItemSets an item in the table. The id must exist in the table. (Inherited from Table)
SetShaderParameterSets a parameter in the table.

Properties details

Name

The name of the ShaderParameterTable object. (Inherited from Object)

Methods details

AddItem

Adds an item to the table. The returned value is the id of the item within the table, which can be used to retrieve the item using GetItem().

AddObserver

Adds a user-defined observer object to the interface, that will receive events from the interface. (Inherited from Object)

AddShaderParameter

Adds a shader to the table. The returned value is the id of the parameter within the table.

Clear

Clears the table, and removes all items. If AddItem is called after Clear, the item ids will start over from 0.

Copy

Clears the current table and copies the items from a source table.

FindItem

Finds a named item in the table. If multiple items have the same name, the first will be returned. If no item was found, null will be returned.

FindItemId

Finds the id of an item in the table, using the name. If multiple items have the same name, the first will be returned. If no item was found, the return will be -1.

FindShaderParameter

Finds a parameter in the table, using the parameter name. Note names are unique

FindShaderParameterId

Finds the id of a parameter in the table, using the parameter name. Note parameter names are unique.

GetClass

Get the name of the ShaderParameterTable class. (Inherited from Object)

GetItem

Returns the i:th item, using the id of the item.

GetItemsCount

The number of item id:s in the table. If an item has been removed, using RemoveItem, the id is still counted in this method. GetIdsCount also equals the id that will be applied to the next item added to the table.

GetShaderParameter

Returns the i:th parameter, using the id of the parameter.

GetShaderParametersCount

Returns the number of parameters in the table.

IsA

Returns true if ShaderParameterTable is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. (Inherited from Object)

IsNull

Returns true if the ShaderParameterTable object is invalid. (Inherited from Object)

IsSameObjectAs

Returns true if the ShaderParameterTable object is valid. (Inherited from Object)

NonNull

Returns true if the ShaderParameterTable object is valid. (Inherited from Object)

PrintInfo

Prints the content/info of the ShaderParameterTable object to the log. (Inherited from Object)

RemoveItem

Removes an item, and invalidates the id. The id will not point at a valid item, until Clear is called and new items are added up until the id.

RemoveObserver

Removes a previously added observer object. (Inherited from Object)

RemoveShaderParameter

Removes a parameter. If GetShaderParameter is called with the parameter id, the value returned will be null.

SetItem

Sets an item in the table. The id must exist in the table.

SetShaderParameter

Sets a parameter in the table.

Static methods details

IsClassA

Returns true if the class is a or is a descendant of the class named as the type parameter. (Inherited from Object)

SafeCast

SafeCast makes sure the input object is of a class that can be cast into spShaderParameterTable, and if this is the case, returns the object cast into spShaderParameterTable. (Inherited from Object)
