Add and use a simple shader to make the current color more bluish

Windows
1

Hi everyone

I'm working on a project in windows using Juce and VS 2010 and in my project I draw a map using an external library called geofusion.

what I'm trying to do is to add a shader on top of the map to make it a little more blue.

As I'm new to both juce and shaders, I tried copying and changing the code from the openGlDemo in juce examples.

the problem I have is when I use both vertex and fragment shaders and link them, I see nothing, But if I only use fragment shader, I can change the color of the map to pink for example, but then everything is pink and it just draws a pink layer on top of the map and the map is not shown.

so in short, I want to use vertex shader only for passing the original colour to fragment shader so I can add more blue to it.

I've created a shader class to make things easier to read.

Here are my .h and .cpp files for shader class :

shader.h file :

This is the fragment and vertex shader codes:

juce::String newVertexShader=

    "attribute vec4 position;\n"
    "attribute vec4 sourceColour;\n"
    "attribute vec2 texureCoordIn;\n"
    "\n"
    "uniform mat4 projectionMatrix;\n"
    "uniform mat4 viewMatrix;\n"
    "\n"
    "varying vec4 destinationColour;\n"
    "varying vec2 textureCoordOut;\n"
    "\n"
    "void main()\n"
    "{\n"
    "    destinationColour = sourceColour;\n"
    "    textureCoordOut = texureCoordIn;\n"
    "    gl_Position = projectionMatrix * viewMatrix * position;\n"
    "}\n"
    ;

juce::String newFragmentShader =
    #if JUCE_OPENGL_ES
        "varying lowp vec4 destinationColour;\n"
        "varying lowp vec2 textureCoordOut;\n"
    #else
        "varying vec4 destinationColour;\n"
        "varying vec2 textureCoordOut;\n"
    #endif
    "void main()\n"
    "{\n"
    "    vec4 colour1 = vec4 (1.0, 0.4, 0.6, 0.1);\n"
    "    gl_FragColor = destinationColour+ vec4(0.0, 0.0, 0.4, 1.0);\n"
    "}\n"

    ;
juce::OpenGLContext& openGLContext = m_window->getContext();
Shader* shader = new Shader (openGLContext);
shader->linkShaders(openGLContext, newVertexShader, newFragmentShader);

And here's the part of code where I use the shader :

shader->use();

     renderMap();

shader->release();

 

Can someone guide me in the right direction please?

Thanks in advance.
