Optimized uniform

[ein_shved]

I have shader
vert:

uniform vec3 u_Camera;
uniform float u_WaterLevel;
uniform vec3 u_LightPosition;
 
in vec3 in_Vertex;
in vec3 in_Normal;
 
out vec3 vectorLightSource;
out vec3 transformedNormal;
 
void main (void) {
 
	vec3 out_Vertex = in_Vertex;
	if ( (in_Vertex.y - u_WaterLevel)*(u_Camera.y - u_WaterLevel) < 0 ) {
		float dist = distance(in_Vertex, u_Camera);
		float lnt = distance( vec2(in_Vertex.x,in_Vertex.y), vec2(u_Camera.x,u_Camera.y));
		float hgt = abs(u_Camera.y - in_Vertex.y);
 
		float sinAngleA = hgt/dist;
		float angleA = asin (sinAngleA);
		float waterHgt = abs(u_Camera.y - u_WaterLevel);
		float waterLnt = waterHgt/tan(angleA);
 
		float angleB = asin ( sinAngleA/1.3330);
		float dLnt = u_WaterLevel*tan(angleB);
 
		float imagineLnt = abs(waterLnt+dLnt);
 
		float dX = in_Vertex.x - u_Camera.x;
		float dZ = in_Vertex.z - u_Camera.z;
 
		dX = imagineLnt*dX/lnt;
		dZ = imagineLnt*dZ/lnt;
 
		out_Vertex = vec3 (u_Camera.x+dX,in_Vertex.y,u_Camera.z+dZ);
	}
	vec3 vertexPos = (gl_ModelViewMatrix * vec4(out_Vertex,1)).xyz;
	vectorLightSource = normalize ( u_LightPosition - out_Vertex );
	transformedNormal = normalize ( gl_NormalMatrix * in_Normal );
	gl_Position = gl_ProjectionMatrix * gl_ModelViewMatrix * vec4(out_Vertex,1);
 
}

frag:

 
uniform vec3 u_Camera;
uniform float u_WaterLevel;
uniform vec3 u_LightPosition;
 
in vec3 transformedNormal;
in vec3 vectorLightSource;
 
void main (void) {
 
	vec3 diffColor = vec3 (1,1,0);
	vec3 n2   = normalize ( transformedNormal );
	vec3 l2   = normalize ( vectorLightSource );
	gl_FragColor = vec4 ( diffColor * max ( dot ( n2, l2 ), 0.0 ), 1 ) ;
	gl_FragColor = vec4(transformedNormal,1);
 
}

u_LightPosition and in_Normal used to make transformedNormal and vectorLightSource in vertex shader, which pass to fragment shader. The problem is thet u_LightPosition and in_Normal are optimized out by GLSL Compiler and glGetUniformLocation return me -1. But in fact I'm use them. What is the magic here?

The problem seems to be

gl_FragColor = vec4 ( diffColor * max ( dot ( n2, l2 ), 0.0 ), 1 ) ;     
gl_FragColor = vec4(transformedNormal,1);

The first gl_FragColor is useless, it is overwritten by the second. However the second one does not use l2 and thus vectorLightSource is not used. Also, the latter is the only thing needing u_LightPosition. So it's all optimized away. Actually quite a clever compiler

You aren't using them. Look at your final line

gl_FragColor = vec4(transformedNormal,1);
