Disclaimer: the aim of this post is not to show a comprehensive list of the different techniques that can be used to write a fluent API, tons of good information is out there on the web and. If you are very interested in the subject, please take a look at Martin Fowler’s Domain-Specific Languages . Now that I took that load off my back, let’s start writing a fluent interface.

The Ramblings of a Hazy Mind

When I started looking into functional languages in 1998, I had just come off a series of projects writing video games for underpowered hardware: Super Nintendo, SEGA Saturn, early PowerPC-based Macintoshes without any graphics acceleration. My benchmark for usefulness was "Can a programming language be used to write complex, performance intensive video games?" After working through basic tutorials, and coming to grips with the lack of destructive updates, I started thinking about how to write trivial games, like Pac-Man or Defender, in a purely functional manner. Then I realized that it wasn't performance that was the issue, it was much more fundamental. I had no idea how to structure the most trivial of games without using destructive updates. prog21: Purely Functional Retrogames, Part 1

HLSL Introduction By Chang Li H igh Level Shading Language ( HLSL ), a programming language for Graphic Processing Unit (GPU) in DirectX 9/10/11, supports the shader construction with C-like syntax, types, expressions, statements, and functions. Long time ago, Apple's RenderMan was a popular shading language that was used to generate cinematic effects with CPU in render farms.

FX Composer 1.8 FX Composer 2.5 is a powerful integrated development environment for shader authoring. New features in this release include: Major user interface improvements DirectX 10 support, including geometry shaders and stream out. Visual Styles - the ability to create, define, and export multiple looks for a model. Particle systems Support for the NVIDIA Shader Debugger Remote control over TCP/IP Unified Importing of Models Improved Performance And more!

XNA Tutorial > DirectX using C# Welcome to the tutorials on DirectX and XNA. As you can see in the table of contents on the right, this site contains tutorials in a variety of languages. This page was written to provide some comments on the differences between these flavors. When you click on one of those languages, you’ll see they’re subdivided into Series, which again consist of several chapters. Each chapter puts its focus on a new XNA (or DirectX) related concept.
