CMPS 160 -- Spring 2013

CMPS 160 -- Lab Assignment 2

Due date:
Thursday, April 11, 2013

Objectives:

Experience with compiling and editing shader programs.

Description

The following program is based on the first sample code from chapter two of our textbook. First task is to compile and run it to see how it works. Note: the include files can be found here, while the Windows version of the source for example 1 can be found here. The shaders are named vshader21.glsl and fshader21.glsl.
Your second task is to modify this code so that it draws a simple triangle, just like the 1st lab exercise. A few things to note:
- make sure you are drawing a triangle instead of the points or vertices,
- make sure your triangle has the same color and vertices as in lab1,
- make sure the viewing angle is the same as in lab1 (check out glOrtho).

Grading:

Note: all lab and programming assignments must include a statically linked executable. This lab assignment will form part of your CMPS 160L grade. The other component of CMPS 160L grade is your attendance.

Submission:

Submission must be done using the "submit" command from CATS.

submit cmps160-ap.s13 lab2 lab2.tar, or
submit cmps160-ap.s13 lab2 lab2.zip

This command should work from unix.ic.ucsc.edu. Create and submit a subdirectory called lab2. It should contain the executable and all the files you have to make your program compile/run. Tar or zip up lab2 before submitting.
