Templates

Shader templating is available in XKSL. Unlike many templating systems, pdxsl requires strong typed templates. The available types are:

  • - Code: Templating
    1. shader TemplateShader<float speed, Texture2D myTexture, SamplerState mySampler, Semantic mySemantic, LinkType myLink>{    [Color]    [Link("myLink")]    float4 myColor;    stream float2 texcoord : mySemantic;    float4 GetValue()    {        return speed * myColor * myTexture.Sample(mySampler, streams.texcoord);    }};// To instantiate the shader, use:TemplateShader<1.0f, Texturing.Texture0, Texturing.Sampler0, TEXCOORD0, MyColorLink>
