[solved] documentation for compositor passes

[cyrfer]

After reading and trying to use the documentation for the clear and stencil passes, I think it is not correct.

I have this inside my compositor's target operation:

Code: Select all

			pass clear
			{
				// THESE DO NOT SEEM TO HAVE AN EFFECT
				buffers colour depth stencil
				colour_value 1 1 1 1
				depth_value 1.0
				stencil_value 0.0
			}

			pass stencil
			{
				check off
				comp_func always_pass
				ref_value 1
				pass_op replace
				//mask 4294967295
				fail_op keep
				depth_fail_op keep
				two_sided off
			}

But my log file says this:

14:24:28: Compiler error: unknown error in deferred.compositor(168): token "buffers" is not recognized
14:24:28: Compiler error: unknown error in deferred.compositor(169): token "colour_value" is not recognized

14:24:28: Compiler error: unknown error in deferred.compositor(211): token "two_sided" is not recognized

Is the documentation wrong or am I just not able to understand it?

I am using the Hg source code for 1.8.0 (before the 1.8 branch was created). Thanks for any help.

Here is a thread with a similar issue and an answer. It is for the clear pass, but I'm guessing the stencil pass is the same.

Does this recent commit imply a grammar change? It was kinda redundant before - thanks for the improvement!

Nah, I reverted the commit because it was breaking a bunch of the samples. I'll review it soon and see if it's ok again.

[Edit] Ok, I have no idea what I was seeing before but the samples work fine with the patch applied.
