GLES shader won't compile on iphone

This makes no sense. My shader won’t build on the iphone, citing a link error that is wrong. See below:


**Link failure!!**

Did apple screw up the OpenGLES 2.0 implementation on the iphone simulator?

apparently opengl es cannot link multiple shaders, so I had to merge the source files.

wow, so many limitations on gles

Since you can pass multiple strings to glShaderSource, that should be quite easy to handle.

By the way, I’d recommend using highp precision for vertex position calculations. While mediump is sufficient for most other uses (and out_color could be lowp), vertex transformations often cause problems with anything less than highp.
