NAME
cgGetNamedEffectParameter - get a effect parameter by name
SYNOPSIS
#include <Cg/cg.h> CGparameter cgGetNamedEffectParameter( CGeffect effect, const char * name );PARAMETERS
- effect
Specifies the effect to retrieve the parameter from.
- name
Specifies the name of the parameter to retrieve.
DESCRIPTION
The parameters of a effect can be retrieved directly by name using the cgGetNamedEffectParameter function. The names of the parameters in a effect can be discovered by iterating through the effect's parameters (see the "cgGetFirstEffectParameter" document and the "cgGetNextEffectParameter" document), calling cgGetParameterName for each one in turn.
The given name may be of the form "foo.bar[2]", which retrieves the second element of the array "bar" in a structure named "foo".
RETURN VALUES
Returns the named parameter from the effect. If the effect has no parameter corresponding to name, NULL is returned.
ERRORS
CG_INVALID_EFFECT_HANDLE_ERROR is generated if effect does not refer to a valid effect.
