The RenderMan (Rix) API
Brad Eric Hollister · Apress eBooks · 2023
The purpose of this chapter is to describe the core header files (interfaces) and classes involved in writing Bxdf shader plugins. Topics include RixShadingContext , RixShadingPlugin , RixBxdf , and the utility functions (from RixShadingUtils.h ). We draw parallels between the Rix API and built-in globals and utility functions from RSL.
