Hi Mike
I may have narrowed down the problem. It's not so much the arrays that are
causing problems, but their usage.
For example indexing an array like this:
arr[ind]
works fine for the vertex shader, but doesn't compile on the fragment
shader, saying that the index has to be constant, so that arr[ind] is not
allowed, but arr[3] is ok.
However, since I'm using long arrays (70 elements), I don't know how to work
around this limitation.
Any ideas?
Notice that this error only happens on 7800, not on 8800.
Also, even though I changed the osg notification level to debug, I get no
error/warning messages when compiling and linking the shader. Don't know why
... (I used another glsl debugger to get the error messages)
