ways to use fragment shaders source code code example
Example: how read a shader from another file c++
#include "GLShader.hpp"
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>

return "";
}
std::string line = "";
while(!fileStream.eof()) {
std::getline(fileStream, line);
content.append(line + "\n");
}
fileStream.close();
return content;
}
