overrideRef()
Function in Values
A read of a pipeline specialization constant, the read side of an overrideConst(...) declaration.
import { overrideRef } from 'typeshade'
The signature, the description and the examples come from the compiler's own source at commit 26de7be8.
Syntax
function overrideRef<T extends ShaderType>(name: string, type: T): ReadonlyNode<KeyOf<T>>Parameters
namestringtypeT extends ShaderType
Return value
ReadonlyNode<KeyOf<T>>
Description
The result is a ReadonlyNode, and the optimizer treats it as opaque:
the value is symbolic until pipeline creation, so no folding or dead-branch pass may
collapse a branch it guards. Authoring code reads through the handle overrideConst
returns; this is the primitive behind that handle.
