|
|
<para><function>glBindAttribLocation</function> is used to
|
|
associate a user-defined attribute variable in the program
|
|
object specified by <parameter>program</parameter> with a
|
|
generic vertex attribute index. The name of the user-defined
|
|
attribute variable is passed as a null terminated string in
|
|
<parameter>name</parameter>. The generic vertex attribute index
|
|
to be bound to this variable is specified by
|
|
<parameter>index</parameter>. When
|
|
<parameter>program</parameter> is made part of current state,
|
|
values provided via the generic vertex attribute
|
|
<parameter>index</parameter> will modify the value of the
|
|
user-defined attribute variable specified by
|
|
<parameter>name</parameter>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If <parameter>name</parameter> refers to a matrix
|
|
attribute variable, <parameter>index</parameter> refers to the
|
|
first column of the matrix. Other matrix columns are then
|
|
automatically bound to locations <parameter>index+1</parameter>
|
|
for a matrix of type <function>mat2</function>; <parameter>index+1</parameter> and
|
|
<parameter>index+2</parameter> for a matrix of type <function>mat3</function>; and
|
|
<parameter>index+1</parameter>, <parameter>index+2</parameter>,
|
|
and <parameter>index+3</parameter> for a matrix of type
|
|
<function>mat4</function>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This command makes it possible for vertex shaders to use
|
|
descriptive names for attribute variables rather than generic
|
|
variables that are numbered from 0 to
|
|
<constant>GL_MAX_VERTEX_ATTRIBS</constant> -1. The values sent
|
|
to each generic attribute index are part of current state.
|
|
If a different program object is made current by calling
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>glUseProgram</refentrytitle></citerefentry>,
|
|
the generic vertex attributes are tracked in such a way that the
|
|
same values will be observed by attributes in the new program
|
|
object that are also bound to
|
|
<parameter>index</parameter>.</para> <para>Attribute variable
|
|
name-to-generic attribute index bindings for a program object
|
|
can be explicitly assigned at any time by calling
|
|
<function>glBindAttribLocation</function>. Attribute bindings do
|
|
not go into effect until
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>glLinkProgram</refentrytitle></citerefentry>
|
|
is called. After a program object has been linked successfully,
|
|
the index values for generic attributes remain fixed (and their
|
|
values can be queried) until the next link command
|
|
occurs.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Any attribute binding that occurs after the program object has been linked will not take effect
|
|
until the next time the program object is linked.</para>

<refsect1 id="notes"><title>Notes</title>
|
|
<para><function>glBindAttribLocation</function> can be called
|
|
before any vertex shader objects are bound to the specified
|
|
program object. It is also permissible to bind a generic
|
|
attribute index to an attribute variable name that is never used
|
|
in a vertex shader.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>If <parameter>name</parameter> was bound previously, that
|
|
information is lost. Thus you cannot bind one user-defined
|
|
attribute variable to multiple indices, but you can bind
|
|
multiple user-defined attribute variables to the same
|
|
index.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Applications are allowed to bind more than one
|
|
user-defined attribute variable to the same generic vertex
|
|
attribute index. This is called <emphasis>aliasing</emphasis>,
|
|
and it is allowed only if just one of the aliased attributes is
|
|
active in the executable program, or if no path through the
|
|
shader consumes more than one attribute of a set of attributes
|
|
aliased to the same location. The compiler and linker are
|
|
allowed to assume that no aliasing is done and are free to
|
|
employ optimizations that work only in the absence of aliasing.
|
|
OpenGL implementations are not required to do error checking to
|
|
detect aliasing.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Active attributes that are not explicitly bound will be
|
|
bound by the linker when
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>glLinkProgram</refentrytitle></citerefentry>
|
|
is called. The locations assigned can be queried by calling
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>glGetAttribLocation</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>OpenGL copies the <parameter>name</parameter> string when
|
|
<function>glBindAttribLocation</function> is called, so an
|
|
application may free its copy of the <parameter>name</parameter>
|
|
string immediately after the function returns.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Generic attribute locations may be specified in the shader source
|
|
text using a <function>location</function> layout qualifier. In this case,
|
|
the location of the attribute specified in the shader's source takes precedence
|
|
and may be queried by calling <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glGetAttribLocation</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.
