# librashader C headers
The librashader C headers are unlike the implementations, explicitly licensed under the MIT license.
They are provided for easy integration of librashader in a multi-target C or C++ project that may not have
the necessary hardware or APIs available required for all supported runtimes.
`librashader.h` can be depended upon to link with `librashader.dll` or `librashader.so` if you wish to link
with librashader.
An easier alternative is to use the `librashader_ld.h` header library to load function pointers
from any `librashader.dll` or `librashader.so` implementation in the search path. You should customize this
header file to remove support for any runtimes you do not need.
## Usage
A basic example of using `librashader_ld.h` to load a shader preset.
```c++
#include "librashader_ld.h"
libra_gl_filter_chain_t load_gl_filter_chain(libra_gl_loader_t opengl, const char *preset_path) {
libra_instance_t librashader = librashader_load_instance();
if (!librashader.instance_loaded) {
std::cout << "Could not load librashader\n";
return NULL;
}
libra_shader_preset_t preset;
libra_error_t error = librashader.preset_create(preset_path, &preset);
if (error != NULL) {
std::cout << "Could not load preset\n";
return NULL;
}
libra_gl_filter_chain_t chain;
if (librashader.gl_filter_chain_create(&preset, opengl, NULL, &chain) {
std::cout << "Could not create OpenGL filter chain\n";
}
return chain;
}
```
