explicit ComputeNode(std::string const &name)

Creates a ComputeNode with the given name. Use add_dispatch and also assign a shader using a ShaderAttrib.

void add_dispatch(LVecBase3i const &num_groups)
void add_dispatch(int num_groups_x, int num_groups_y, int num_groups_z)

Adds a dispatch command with the given number of work groups in the X, Y, and Z dimensions. Any of these values may be set to 1 if the respective dimension should not be used.

void clear_dispatches(void)

Removes all dispatch commands.

static TypeHandle get_class_type(void)
LVecBase3i const &get_dispatch(std::size_t i) const

Returns the group counts of the nth dispatch associated with this object.

std::size_t get_num_dispatches(void) const

Returns the number of times add_dispatch has been called on this object.

void insert_dispatch(std::size_t i, LVecBase3i const &num_groups)

Inserts a dispatch command with the given number of work groups in the X, Y, and Z dimensions at the given position in the list of dispatch commands. Any of these values may be set to 1 if the respective dimension should not be used.

void remove_dispatch(std::size_t i)

Erases the given dispatch index from the list.

void set_dispatch(std::size_t i, LVecBase3i const &num_groups)

Sets the group counts of the nth dispatch associated with this object.
