Writing tessellation evaluation shaders

Tessellation evaluation is the second programmable stage in the tessellation process. It is executed when the geometry is already tessellated (subdivided) and is used to gather results of the tessellation to form the new vertices and further modify them. When the tessellation is enabled, we need to write tessellation evaluation shaders to acquire the locations of generated vertices and provide them to the consecutive pipeline stages.

How to do it...

1. Create a text file. Select a name for the file and use a tese extension for it (for example, shader.tese).
2. Insert #version 450 in the first line of the file.
3. Using the in layout qualifier, define the type of formed primitives (isolines, triangles, or quads), the spacing between...
