NAME

cgCreateProgramFromFile - create a program object from a file

SYNOPSIS


  #include <Cg/cg.h>






  CGprogram cgCreateProgramFromFile( CGcontext context, 

                                     CGenum program_type,

                                     const char * program_file,

                                     CGprofile profile,

                                     const char * entry,

                                     const char ** args );





PARAMETERS


context
The context to which the new program will be added.
program_type
An enumerant describing the contents of the program_file. The following enumerants are allowed:

CG_SOURCE
program_file contains Cg source code.
CG_OBJECT
program_file contains object code that resulted from the precompilation of some Cg source code.

program_file
Name of a file containing source or object code. See program_type for more information.
profile
The profile enumerant for the program.
entry
The entry point to the program in the Cg source. If NULL, the entry point defaults to "main".
args
If args is not NULL it is assumed to be an array of NULL-terminated strings that will be passed directly to the compiler as arguments. The last value of the array must be a NULL.

RETURN VALUES

Returns a CGprogram handle on success.

Returns NULL if any error occurs.

DESCRIPTION

cgCreateProgramFromFile generates a new CGprogram object and adds it to the specified Cg context.

EXAMPLES


   CGcontext context = cgCreateContext();

   CGprogram program = cgCreateProgramFromFile(context,

                                               CG_SOURCE,

                                               mysourcefilename,

                                               CG_PROFILE_ARBVP1,

                                               "myshader",

                                               NULL);





ERRORS

CG_INVALID_CONTEXT_HANDLE_ERROR is generated if context is not a valid context.

CG_INVALID_ENUMERANT_ERROR is generated if program_type is not CG_SOURCE or CG_OBJECT.

CG_UNKNOWN_PROFILE_ERROR is generated if profile is not a supported profile.

CG_COMPILER_ERROR is generated if compilation fails.

HISTORY

cgCreateProgramFromFile was introduced in Cg 1.1.
