Shader is effectively an 'uber-shader' containing a collection of 'variants'. Variants are designed to be 'variations' on the same core shader technique. To enforce this, every variant in the shader shares the same pipeline layout (i.e. set of shader resource groups).
A shader owns a library of pipeline states. When a variant is resolved to a pipeline state, its lifetime is determined by the lifetime of the Shader (unless an explicit reference is taken). If an asset reload event occurs, the pipeline state cache is reset.
To use Shader: 1) Construct a ShaderOptionGroup instance using CreateShaderOptionGroup. 2) Configure the group by setting values on shader options. 3) Find the ShaderVariantStableId using the ShaderVariantId generated from the configured ShaderOptionGroup. 4) Acquire the ShaderVariant instance using the ShaderVariantStableId. 5) Configure a pipeline state descriptor on the variant; make local overrides as necessary (e.g. to configure runtime render state). 6) Acquire a RHI::PipelineState instance from the shader using the configured pipeline state descriptor.
Remember that the returned RHI::PipelineState instance lifetime is tied to the Shader lifetime. If you need guarantee lifetime, it is safe to take a reference on the returned pipeline state.
| Data::Instance< ShaderResourceGroup > AZ::RPI::Shader::CreateDefaultDrawSrg | ( | bool | compileTheSrg | ) |
Creates a DrawSrg that contains the shader variant fallback key, initialized to the default shader options values. This SRG must be included in the DrawPacket for any shader that has shader options, otherwise the CommandList will fail validation for SRG being null.
| compileTheSrg | If you need to set other values in the SRG, set this to false, and the call Compile() when you are done. |
| Data::Instance< ShaderResourceGroup > AZ::RPI::Shader::CreateDrawSrgForShaderVariant | ( | const ShaderOptionGroup & | shaderOptions, |
| bool | compileTheSrg | ||
| ) |
Creates a DrawSrg that contains the shader variant fallback key. This SRG must be included in the DrawPacket for any shader that has shader options, otherwise the CommandList will fail validation for SRG being null.
| shaderOptions | The shader option values will be stored in the SRG's shader variant fallback key (if there is one). |
| compileTheSrg | If you need to set other values in the SRG, set this to false, and the call Compile() when you are done. |
| ShaderVariantSearchResult AZ::RPI::Shader::FindVariantStableId | ( | const ShaderVariantId & | shaderVariantId | ) | const |
Finds the best matching shader variant asset and returns its StableId. In cases where you can't cache the ShaderVariant, and recurrently you may need the same ShaderVariant at different times, then it can be convenient (and more performant) to call this method to cache the ShaderVariantStableId and call GetVariant(ShaderVariantStableId) when needed. If the asset is not immediately found in the file system, it will return the StableId of the root variant. Callers should listen to ShaderReloadNotificationBus to get notified whenever the exact variant is loaded and available or if a variant changes, etc.
| const ShaderVariant & AZ::RPI::Shader::GetDefaultVariant | ( | ) |
Returns the closest variant that uses the default shader option values. This could return the root variant or a fallback variant if there is no variant baked for that combination of option values.
| RHI::DrawListTag AZ::RPI::Shader::GetDrawListTag | ( | ) | const |
Returns the DrawListTag that identifies which Pass and View objects will process this shader. This tag corresponds to the ShaderAsset object's DrawListName.
| const ShaderVariant & AZ::RPI::Shader::GetVariant | ( | const ShaderVariantId & | shaderVariantId | ) |
Finds the best matching ShaderVariant for the given shaderVariantId, If the variant is loaded and ready it will return the corresponding ShaderVariant. If the variant is not yet available it will return the root ShaderVariant. Callers should listen to ShaderReloadNotificationBus to get notified whenever the exact variant is loaded and available or if a variant changes, etc. This function should be your one stop shop to get a ShaderVariant from a ShaderVariantId. Alternatively: You can call FindVariantStableId() followed by GetVariant(shaderVariantStableId).
| const ShaderVariant & AZ::RPI::Shader::GetVariant | ( | ShaderVariantStableId | shaderVariantStableId | ) |
Returns the variant associated with the provided StableId. You should call FindVariantStableId() which caches the variant, later when this function is called the variant is fetched from a local map. If the variant is not found, the root variant is returned. "Alternatively: a more convenient approach is to call GetVariant(ShaderVariantId) which does both, the find and the get."
