# Clutter::Shader(3pm)

Programmable pipeline abstraction

## NAME

Clutter::Shader - Programmable pipeline abstraction

## DESCRIPTION

**Clutter::Shader** is an object providing an abstraction over the OpenGL programmable pipeline. By using Clutter::Shader instances it is possible to override the drawing pipeline by using small programs also known as "shaders".

## HIERARCHY

```
  Glib::Object
  +----Clutter::Shader
```

## METHODS

### shader = Clutter::Shader-\>new

### boolean = $shader-\>compile

May croak with a Glib::Error in $@ on failure.

### string = $shader-\>get\_fragment\_source

### $shader-\>set\_fragment\_source ($source)

- •

  `$source` (string)

### boolean = $shader-\>is\_compiled

### boolean = $shader-\>get\_is\_enabled

### $shader-\>set\_is\_enabled ($enabled)

- •

  `$enabled` (boolean)

### $shader-\>release

### string = $shader-\>get\_vertex\_source

### $shader-\>set\_vertex\_source ($source)

- •

  `$source` (string)

## PROPERTIES

- 'compiled' (boolean : readable / private)

  Whether the shader is compiled and linked

- 'enabled' (boolean : readable / writable / private)

  Whether the shader is enabled

- 'fragment-source' (string : readable / writable / private)

  Source of fragment shader

- 'vertex-source' (string : readable / writable / private)

  Source of vertex shader
