SimpleDrawShaderMgr

Author: Sam Buss

SimpleDrawShaderMgr is sample C++ code illustrating the use of Modern OpenGL. It is part of a set of programs introducing the use of Modern OpenGL, which are intended to accompany a possible second edition of the book 3D Computer Graphics: A mathematical approach with OpenGL, Cambridge University Press, 2003.

SimpleDrawShaderMgr is an adaptation of SimpleDrawModern to use the GLShaderMgr to read shaders from a file. Instead of hardcoding the shader source code into the a C++ array, it reads the source from a file named SimpleDraw.glsl. Available for download:

• SimpleDrawShaderMgr.zip: A zip file containing the main source file SimpleDrawShaderMgr.cpp and the file SimpleDraw.glsl with the source code for the shaders.
• Alternately, you can download the two files individually as SimpleDrawShaderMgr.cpp and SimpleDraw.glsl.
• The web page for GlShaderMgr has documentation and source code for GlShaderMgr.
• Read the explanation of how SimpleDrawShaderMgr uses GlShaderMgr.
