vertex program ARB.....

[white_cat]

FILE* fp = fopen("shader.txt","r");
fseek(fp,0,SEEK_END);
DWORD filesize = ftell(fp);
fseek(fp,0,SEEK_SET);
vertex_program = new char[filesize];
fread(vertex_program,1,filesize,fp);

glEnable(GL_VERTEX_PROGRAM_ARB);
glGenProgramsARB(1,&progid);
glBindProgramARB(GL_VERTEX_PROGRAM_ARB,progid);

glProgramStringARB(GL_VERTEX_PROGRAM_ARB,GL_PROGRA M_FORMAT_ASCII_ARB,filesize,vertex_program);

if(GL_INVALID_OPERATION == glGetError())
{
unsigned char *errString;

errString = (unsigned char*)glGetString(GL_PROGRAM_ERROR_STRING_ARB);
return false;
}
-----------------------------------------
I returned a string, "Invalid character", from glGetString-function. what that mean?
I cannot find syntax or etc error..
-------------------------------------
!!ARBvp1.0
ATTRIB iPos = vertex.postion;
ATTRIB iColor = vertex.color;

OUTPUT oPos = result.position;
OUTPUT oColor = result.color;
#no calculation
MOV oPos,iPos;
MOV iColor,oColor;
END
-------------------------------------
very simple!
because only test!

You're forgetting to 0-terminate the program string. You need to allocate one more byte, and then set that (final) byte to 0.

Hi ,
what about position instead of postion !
and also MOV oColor ,iColor;
then it should "work" ,although you won´t
see anything until you transform your vertex
to clip space I think.

Hmm... I did it. but the result isn't a different.

well,I think that the vertex program is not work because glProgramStringARB-function occur error(you know it,"Invalid charater").

The program string doesn't have to be null terminated as long as you're passing in the length correctly, though of course it never hurts either.

I had a problem similar to this when I first started experimenting with vertex programs. I was either reading in too many or too few characters from the file, I forget which. In any case, opening the file in binary mode seemed to fix things right up. Give it a try...



fp = fopen(filename.c_str(), "rb");

fseek(fp, 0, SEEK_END);
stringLength = ftell(fp);
fseek(fp, 0, SEEK_SET);

programString = (char*)malloc(stringLength + 1);
fread(programString, 1, stringLength, fp);
programString[stringLength] = 0;
fclose(fp);

glGenProgramsARB(1, &programObject);
glBindProgramARB(GL_VERTEX_PROGRAM_ARB, programObject);
glProgramStringARB(GL_VERTEX_PROGRAM_ARB, GL_PROGRAM_FORMAT_ASCII_ARB, stringLength, programString);

+_+ Ho~ good!
I know!
must read to binary type..
A factor of problem was New-line code,usually enter code in ascii, add from read file.
thx for your reply.
