public class GLShader extends PropertyHolder
A `GskGLShader` is a snippet of GLSL that is meant to run in the
fragment shader of the rendering pipeline.

A fragment shader gets the coordinates being rendered as input and
produces the pixel values for that particular pixel. Additionally,
the shader can declare a set of other input arguments, called
uniforms (as they are uniform over all the calls to your shader in
each instance of use). A shader can also receive up to 4
textures that it can use as input when producing the pixel data.

`GskGLShader` is usually used with gtk_snapshot_push_gl_shader()
to produce a [class@Gsk.GLShaderNode] in the rendering hierarchy,
and then its input textures are constructed by rendering the child
nodes to textures before rendering the shader node itself. (You can
pass texture nodes as children if you want to directly use a texture
as input).

The actual shader code is GLSL code that gets combined with
some other code into the fragment shader. Since the exact
capabilities of the GPU driver differs between different OpenGL
drivers and hardware, GTK adds some defines that you can use
to ensure your GLSL code runs on as many drivers as it can.

If the OpenGL driver is GLES, then the shader language version
is set to 100, and GSK_GLES will be defined in the shader.

Otherwise, if the OpenGL driver does not support the 3.2 core profile,
then the shader will run with language version 110 for GL2 and 130 for GL3,
and GSK_LEGACY will be defined in the shader.

If the OpenGL driver supports the 3.2 code profile, it will be used,
the shader language version is set to 150, and GSK_GL3 will be defined
in the shader.

The main function the shader must implement is:

```glsl
void mainImage(out vec4 fragColor,
in vec2 fragCoord,
in vec2 resolution,
in vec2 uv)
```

Where the input @fragCoord is the coordinate of the pixel we're
currently rendering, relative to the boundary rectangle that was
specified in the `GskGLShaderNode`, and @resolution is the width and
height of that rectangle. This is in the typical GTK coordinate
system with the origin in the top left. @uv contains the u and v
coordinates that can be used to index a texture at the
corresponding point. These coordinates are in the [0..1]x[0..1]
region, with 0, 0 being in the lower left corder (which is typical
for OpenGL).

The output @fragColor should be a RGBA color (with
premultiplied alpha) that will be used as the output for the
specified pixel location. Note that this output will be
automatically clipped to the clip region of the glshader node.

In addition to the function arguments the shader can define
up to 4 uniforms for textures which must be called u_textureN
(i.e. u_texture1 to u_texture4) as well as any custom uniforms
you want of types int, uint, bool, float, vec2, vec3 or vec4.

All textures sources contain premultiplied alpha colors, but if some
there are outer sources of colors there is a gsk_premultiply() helper
to compute premultiplication when needed.

Note that GTK parses the uniform declarations, so each uniform has to
be on a line by itself with no other code, like so:

```glsl
uniform float u_time;
uniform vec3 u_color;
uniform sampler2D u_texture1;
uniform sampler2D u_texture2;
```

GTK uses the "gsk" namespace in the symbols it uses in the
shader, so your code should not use any symbols with the prefix gsk
or GSK. There are some helper functions declared that you can use:

```glsl
vec4 GskTexture(sampler2D sampler, vec2 texCoords);
```

This samples a texture (e.g. u_texture1) at the specified
coordinates, and contains some helper ifdefs to ensure that
it works on all OpenGL versions.

You can compile the shader yourself using [method@Gsk.GLShader.compile],
otherwise the GSK renderer will do it when it handling the glshader
node. If errors occurs, the returned @error will include the glsl
sources, so you can see what GSK was passing to the compiler. You
can also set GSK_DEBUG=shaders in the environment to see the sources
and other relevant information about all shaders that GSK is handling.

# An example shader

```glsl
uniform float position;
uniform sampler2D u_texture1;
uniform sampler2D u_texture2;

void mainImage(out vec4 fragColor,
in vec2 fragCoord,
in vec2 resolution,
in vec2 uv) {
vec4 source1 = GskTexture(u_texture1, uv);
vec4 source2 = GskTexture(u_texture2, uv);

fragColor = position * source1 + (1.0 - position) * source2;
}
```

    • compile

      @Deprecated public boolean compile(@Nonnull Renderer renderer) throws AllocationError
      Veraltet.
      Tries to compile the @shader for the given @renderer.

      If there is a problem, this function returns %FALSE and reports
      an error. You should use this function before relying on the shader
      for rendering and use a fallback with a simpler shader or without
      shaders if it fails.

      Note that this will modify the rendering state (for example
      change the current GL context) and requires the renderer to be
      set up. This means that the widget has to be realized. Commonly you
      want to call this from the realize signal of a widget, or during
      widget snapshot.
      Parameter:
      renderer - a `GskRenderer`
      Gibt zurück:
      %TRUE on success, %FALSE if an error occurred
      Löst aus:
      AllocationError
