| # Standalone glslang validator |
| |
| This folder contains a standalone glslang validator binary. We use this binary |
| for offline compilation of internal Vulkan shaders. See [the internal shader |
| docs](../../src/libANGLE/renderer/vulkan/shaders/README.md) for more info on |
| offline shader compilation. |
| |
| Use the script [`update_glslang_binary.py`](update_glslang_binary.py) to update |
| the versions of the validator in cloud storage. It must be run on Linux or |
| Windows. It will update the SHA for your platform. After running the script run |
| `git commit` and then `git cl upload` to code review using the normal review |
| process. Note that if the version of glslang has been updated you will also want |
| to run [`scripts/run_code_generation.py`](../../scripts/run_code_generation.py) |
| to update the compiled shader binaries. |
| |
| Please update both Windows and Linux binaries at the same time. Use two CLs. One |
| for each platform. Note that we don't currently support Mac on Vulkan. If we do |
| we should add a glslang download for Mac as well. |
| |
| Contact jmadill or syoussefi for any help with the validator or updating the binaries. |
