Abstract

One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for dynamically specifying a texture header and texture sampler using an index. The index corresponds to a particular register value that may be static or computed during execution of a shader program. Any texture operation instruction may specify an index value for each of the texture header and the texture sampler.
