HGLRC wglContext = wglCreateContext(deviceContext) So we have to create an old context then load WGL extensions then But in able to use WGL extensions, we have use context. Gives us a modern context that we can use. We have to use WGL extension called wglCreateContextAttribsARB. To able to create GL context with attributes, There is a little tricky situation about GL context creation. I used Win32 API for window management because I didn't want to use a 3rd party library for this. I started with the window and context creation code. OpenGL got computer shader support in version 4.3 but we are going with version 4.5. Since it is kinda easy and I know it at the basic level, we can go with that. In this implementation, I am going to use OpenGL. The fragment shader is going to gamma correct our image and render the image to the screen. Then it is going to produce the image as a texture object and send the texture into the fragment shader. So, compute shader is going to do all the same work that CPU doing. It has a similar multithreading execution model that we use on the CPU. Since we have written our raytracer on CPU and I want a copy-paste level easy port(because I'm lazy), compute shader is an obvious choice. I will be using compute shaders for this implementation. Since you are reading this blog, you probably know already and there are amazing pieces of information out there. I'm not gonna talk about what GPU is and what is rendering pipeline. Since I have brought a new computer and it has a very decent GPU and we need more performance, I think we can try to run our raytracer into GPU. Less noisy but our execution time is too long now. We need more samples to generate reasonable image. All of these were introduced in separate versions of OpenGL and GLSL thus having one working doesn’t mean that they all will work./* If bounce hit sphere */ // Add the attenuated emit color to result color. One that applies only to vertex inputs and fragment shader outputs, one that applies for varyings and one that applies for uniforms. There is no generic “layout(location)” feature. Unfortunately, for now you’ll have to stick with using non-explicit locations for uniforms until all vendors support them.Īlso, please don’t confuse things. #extension GL_ARB_explicit_attribute_location : require Use an older shading language but then you require both extension enables:.#extension GL_ARB_explicit_uniform_location : require Use GLSL 3.30 shaders which have explicit attribute locations in core (but not explicit uniform locations), requires OpenGL 3.3:.
Layout(location = 0) uniform vec2 offset Use GLSL 4.30 shaders which have them in core, but are supported only if OpenGL 4.3 is supported by your driver:.However, if you want your application to run on all proper implementations you have to do the following: Some implementations don’t take it that strict whether they allow you to use a feature without the declaration of the extension or not.
