EZ_DefineLightModel(3)          EZWGL Functions         EZ_DefineLightModel(3)

NAME

EZ_DefineLightModel, EZ_BindLightModel - define a lighting model

SYNOPSIS

#include <EZ.h> EZ_LightModel *EZ_DefineLightModel(float *parameters) void EZ_BindLightModel(EZ_LightModel *lmodel)

ARGUMENTS

parameters Specifies material properties. lmodel Specifies a pre-defined lighting model.

DESCRIPTION

EZ_DefineLightModel defines a lighting model based on the specified parameters. The defined lighting model can later be bind the current lighting model. parameters specifies an array of floating point symbols and values that defines the lighting model properties. parameters must contain a sequence of lighting symbols, each followed by the appropriate number of floating point values. The last symbol must be EZ_NULL_F, which is itself not followed by any values. The symbols are: EZ_LIGHT_MODEL_AMBIENT_F specifies the ambient color of the lighting model, Must followed by 4 floats in the range [0.0, 1.0] that specify the intensity of the RGBA components of the ambient color. EZ_LIGHT_MODEL_LOCAL_VIEWER_F specifies whether reflection calculations are done based on a local or infinitely distant viewpoint. It must be followed by a single floating point value, which must be either 0.0 or 1.0. EZ_LIGHT_MODEL_TWO_SIDE_F specifies whether lighting calculations are done assuming that only frontfacing polygons are visible, or are corrected for each polygon based on whether it is frontfacing or backfacing. It must be followed by a single floating point value, which must be either 0.0 or 1.0. The value 1.0 specifies a lighting model that is correct for both frontfacing and backfacing polygons. In this case, vertex normals are reversed for all vertices of backfacing polygons and the back-material is used to color backfacing polygons. EZ_BindLightModel binds the specified pre-defined lighting model to the current lighting model.
