Pragmatic shader / shader include files

[Werner Modenbach]

Hi all,
I'm using osg in a Qt environment.
All my shader code is not located in the file system and also not as const in the code.
Instead it is in the Qt-Resources. Does anybody know a way how to load include "files" from those resources?

An alternative approach might be using the pragmatic shader composition instead.
Unfortunately I couldn't find a description of how to use it and also no example code.

Any hints for me?
Thanks in advance
Werner

I keep the shader code in include files with the code wrapped as C++11 raw strings.  That way, you can edit them in a clean format and still include the code as std::string's.

The code becomes embedded in the application and the build system dependencies monitor the included shader files..

std::string fragment_shader_code = R"shader(

uniform sampler2D source;

void main()
{
// Sample the source texture...
   vec3 color = texture2D( source, gl_TexCoord[0].st ).rgb;
// Compute output color
   gl_FragColor = vec4( color,  1.0 );
} // end main /////////////////////////////////////////

)shader";
