LiteFX::Rendering::ShaderRecord<TLocalData>::localData

Returns a pointer to the shader-local data of the record.

Synopsis

Declared in <litefx/rendering_api.hpp>

constexpr virtual void const* localData() const noexcept override;

Description

Shader-local data is a piece of constant data that is available to the shader during invocation. During a ray hit/miss event, the shader record is selected based on geometry (IBottomLevelAccelerationStructure), instance (ITopLevelAccelerationStructure and an implementation-specific offset. The selected record is then used to load the shader and pass the shader local data to it.

Return Value

A pointer to the shader-local data of the record.
