void IECoreGL::Renderer::attributeBegin

(

)

[virtual]

Push a new attribute state onto the attribute stack. This is identical to the current state, but subsequent calls to setAttribute() will be discarded by the matching attributeEnd().

IECore::DataPtr IECoreGL::Renderer::command	(	const std::string &	name,
		const IECore::CompoundDataMap &	parameters
	)			[virtual]

Commands implemented

"removeObject"
Expects a StringData parameter named "name", which specifies the name of an object to remove from the scene. This only has any effect in deferred mode. "editBegin"
This parameter-less command marks the start of an edit to an existing scene, and should be called before any other changes are made when re-using an existing renderer, that has already reached worldEnd. "editEnd"
This parameter-less command marks the end of an edit to an existing scene, and should be called after other changes have been made when re-using an existing renderer. Note that if a scene has been drawn with renderer->scene()->render() prior to this edit, then it is essential that editEnd is called by the same thread on which drawing was performed, so that GL resources can be released in the appropriate context. "editQuery"
This parameter-less command returns BoolData( true ) if an edit is in progress, and BoolData( false ) otherwise.

Todo:

Consider generalising an interface for scene edits and making it a standard part of the documentation in IECore. Any such interface should take into account support for PRMan's new rerendering API.

Uniform StringData "type" Used to determine how the points are rendered. Supported types are :

"gl:point" Rendered as GL_POINTS

"particle" (the default) "disk" "blobby" Rendered as camera facing disks. The "width" and "constantwidth" variables are supported. Blobby is provided for vague compatibility with the IECoreRI::RIRenderer and 3delight.

"patch" Rendered as camera facing patches. Supports the "width" and "constantwidth" variables and in addition the "patchaspectratio" and "patchrotation" variables. See the 3delight documentation for a description of how these can be used.

"sphere" Rendered as spheres. Supports "width" and "constantwidth" variables to define the sizes of the spheres.

Constant FloatData "constantwidth"

Vertex|Varying FloatVectorData "width"

Constant|Vertex|Varying FloatData|FloatVectorData "patchaspectratio" Constant|Vertex|Varying FloatData|FloatVectorData "patchrotation" These two are used only by the "patch" type.

ScenePtr IECoreGL::Renderer::scene

(

)

When in deferred mode (see setOption above), this method will return the Scene that was generated.

Threading:

The Renderer tries very hard not to need a GL context to operate in when in deferred mode. This allows it to evaluate multiple procedurals concurrently in separate threads (GL wants only one threading talking to a context). When the scene is rendered for the first time it will instantiate various OpenGL resources (textures and shaders and the like) in the current GL context. It is therefore important that the scene is destroyed from the same thread that renders it, so that the resources are released in the correct context. As the resources are also shared by caches (TextureLoaders and ShaderManagers) in the Renderer, it is also important that the renderer is destroyed from this same thread.

References IECoreGL::Renderer::Renderer::MemberData::implementation.

void IECoreGL::Renderer::setAttribute	(	const std::string &	name,
		IECore::ConstDataPtr	value
	)			[virtual]

Standard attributes supported :

• "color"
  Sets the rgb components of the current OpenGL color.
• "opacity"
  Sets the alpha component of the current OpenGL color to the average of the rgb components of opacity.

• "doubleSided"
• "rightHandedOrientation"
• "name"

• "user:*"

Implementation specific attributes :

• "gl:color" Color4fData Color4f( 1.0f ) Sets the current OpenGL color including the alpha component.

Implementation specific shading attributes :

• "gl:shade:transparent" BoolData false
  Signifies that shading may result in transparent results. This is necessary as it's nontrivial to determine this information by querying the shader, and other parts of the system may need to know when transparency is present - for example to trigger depth sorting.

Implementation specific primitive style attributes :

• "gl:primitive:wireframe" BoolData false
  Draw a wireframe for each primitive.

• "gl:primitive:wireframeWidth" FloatData 1.0f
  The line width of the wireframe of the primitive.

• "gl:primitive:wireframeColor" Color4fData
  The color of the wireframes drawn.

• "gl:primitive:bound" BoolData false
  Draw a bounding box for each primitive.

• "gl:primitive:boundColor" Color4fData
  The color of the bounding boxes drawn.

• "gl:primitive:solid" BoolData true
  Draw each primitive solid.

• "gl:primitive:outline" BoolData false
  Draw an outline for each primitive. Note that the results of having this on with filled mode off will probably be undesirable.

• "gl:primitive:outlineColor" Color4fData
  The color of the outlines drawn.

• "gl:primitive:outlineWidth" FloatData 1.0f
  The line width of the outlines of the primitive.

• "gl:primitive:points" BoolData false
  Draw the vertices of each primitive as points.

• "gl:primitive:pointWidth" FloatData 1.0f
  The width of the points used to draw vertices.

• "gl:primitive:pointColor" Color4fData
  The color of the points drawn.

• "gl:primitive:sortForTransparency" BoolData true
  Causes the individual components of a primitive to be sorted in depth when the "gl:shade:transparent" attribute is true. This is currently supported only by the points primitive.

Implementation specific points primitive attributes :

• "gl:pointsPrimitive:useGLPoints" StringData "forGLPoints"
  Can be used to force the use of lightweight glPoints representation of points primitives with types other than "gl:point". Valid values are :
  
  "forGLPoints"
  Use lightweight points only if type is "gl:point"
  
  "forParticlesAndDisks"
  Use lightweight points as a stand in for particle and disk types.
  
  "forAll"
  Use lightweight points as a stand in for all point types.
  
  

• "gl:pointsPrimitive:glPointWidth" FloatData 1.0f
  The size of the points (in pixels) used when rendering lightweight points.

Implementation specific curves primitive attributes :

• "gl:curvesPrimitive:useGLLines" BoolData false
  When this is true then lightweight OpenGL line primitives are used for representing curves.

• "gl:curvesPrimitive:glLineWidth" FloatData 1.0f
  Specifies the line width (in pixels) which is used when rendering lightweight line primitives.

• "gl:curvesPrimitive:ignoreBasis" BoolData false
  When this is true, all curves are rendered as if they were linear.

Implementation specific text primitive attributes :

• "gl:textPrimitive:type" StringData "mesh"
  Controls the basic method used for text rendering. A value of "mesh" specifies that text primitives are rendered as triangulated meshes, and a value of "sprite" specifies rendering as textured planes. The former allows completely customisable shading using the current shader, whereas the latter is shaded constantly using the current colour, but may offer better anti-aliasing and/or speed.

Implementation specific blending attributes :

• "gl:blend:srcFactor" StringData "srcAlpha"
  
• "gl:blend:dstFactor" StringData "oneMinusSrcAlpha"
  These attributes are mapped onto calls to glBlendFunc. They accept only the values below, which correspond directly to one of the GLenum blending values.
  
  "zero"
  "one"
  "srcColor"
  "oneMinusSrcColor"
  "dstColor"
  "oneMinusDstColor"
  "srcAlpha"
  "oneMinusSrcAlpha"
  "dstAlpha"
  "oneMinusDstAlpha"
  "constantColor"
  "oneMinusConstantColor"
  "constantAlpha"
  "oneMinusConstantAlpha"
  

• "gl:blend:color" Color4fData 1 1 1 1
  Used to specify glBlendColor(), only taking effect when using either "constantColor" or "oneMinusConstantColor" for one or other of the blend factors above.

• "gl:blend:equation" StringData "add"
  Controls how the src and dst values are combined after being weighted by srcFactor and dstFactor - this maps onto a call to glBlendEquation. Valid values are listed below, and map directly onto the corresponding GLenum values.
  
  "add"
  "subtract"
  "reverseSubtract"
  "min"
  "max"
  

Implementation specific antialiasing attributes :

• "gl:smoothing:points" BoolData false
  
• "gl:smoothing:lines" BoolData false
  
• "gl:smoothing:polygons" BoolData false
  These attributes enable GL_POINT_SMOOTH, GL_LINE_SMOOTH and GL_POLYGON_SMOOTH respectively.

Implementation specific procedural attributes :

• "gl:procedural:reentrant" BoolData true
  When true, procedurals may be evaluated in multiple parallel threads. When false they will be evaluated from the same thread they were specified from.

void IECoreGL::Renderer::setOption	(	const std::string &	name,
		IECore::ConstDataPtr	value
	)			[virtual]

Standard options supported :

• "searchPath:font"

Implementation specific options supported :

"gl:mode" StringData Valid values are "immediate" or "deferred". In immediate mode rendering is performed in a streaming fashion, drawing each primitive as it is specified. In deferred mode rendering is performed by building a Scene object which can be retrieved for further use by using the scene() method after the render is complete. Future versions may support advanced features such as motion blur and depth of field when in deferred mode but not in immediate mode.

"searchPath:shader" StringData "gl:searchPath:shader" StringData Specifies a set of colon separated paths on which to search for GLSL shaders. The default value is obtained from the environment variable IECOREGL_SHADER_PATHS.

"searchPath:shaderInclude" StringData "gl:searchPath:shaderInclude" StringData Specifies a set of colon separated paths on which to search for include files for GLSL shaders. The default value is obtained from the environment variable IECOREGL_SHADER_INCLUDE_PATHS.

"searchPath:texture" StringData "gl:searchPath:texture" StringData Specifies a set of colon separated paths on which to search for textures. The default value is obtained from the environment variable IECOREGL_TEXTURE_PATHS. Any image file format for which an IECore::Reader is available is suitable for use as a texture.

"shutter" V2fData

"gl:drawCoordinateSystems" BoolData false When this is true, coordinate systems created with the coordinateSystem() method will be visualised.

void IECoreGL::Renderer::shader	(	const std::string &	type,
		const std::string &	name,

	)			[virtual]

Supports only shader type "surface" or "gl:surface", looking for "name.vert" and "name.frag" GLSL source files in the paths defined by the "searchPath:shader" option. Alternatively if the parameter list contains "gl:vertexSource" and/or a "gl:fragmentSource" StringData then a new shader is created using the source provided. For shaders with sampler2D parameters, texture files for these parameters may be specified by passing the filename to an image as StringData.

Todo:

Add support for "textureParameterName:filter" and "textureParameterName:wrap" parameters which set wrapping and filtering on a ShaderStateComponent.

Renders a sphere of the specified radius. zMin and zMax are measured as a proportion of the radius - so no matter what the radius, the default values will always give a full sphere. If the "rightHandedOrientation" attribute is true then the normals point outwards, otherwise they point inwards.

Todo:

Give this the default values it talks about.
