Support ESSL structs containing samplers on D3D
Since HLSL can't natively handle samplers in structs, samplers need to
be extracted out of structs into separate variables in the translated
shader code. In HLSL 4.1, samplers that were in structs go into the
normal sampler arrays and are identified by index constants. In other
HLSL versions, samplers that were in structs are translated as uniform
variables.
These transformations are done inside the HLSL output classes, not as
tree transformations. This helps to keep the uniform API provided by
the shader translator intact.
Wherever a struct containing samplers is passed into a user-defined
function, the translated HLSL code passes the separate sampler
variables alongside a struct where the samplers have been removed.
The D3D backend in libANGLE queries the uniform registers of any
samplers that were in uniform structs, and adds them to the register
maps, so that correct sampler state gets assigned to them.
The extracted sampler variables are prefixed with "angle_" instead of
the usual "_" to prevent any name conflicts between them and regular
variables.

#ANGLE The goal of ANGLE is to allow users of multiple operating systems to seamlessly run WebGL and other OpenGL ES content by translating OpenGL ES API calls to one of the hardware-supported APIs available for that platform. ANGLE currently provides translation from OpenGL ES 2.0 to desktop OpenGL, Direct3D 9, and Direct3D 11. Support for translation from OpenGL ES 3.0 to all of these APIs is nearing completion, and future plans include enabling validated ES-to-ES support.

[Platform support via backing renderers]
ANGLE v1.0.772 was certified compliant by passing the ES 2.0.3 conformance tests in October 2011. ANGLE also provides an implementation of the EGL 1.4 specification.
ANGLE is used as the default WebGL backend for both Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox on Windows platforms. Chrome uses ANGLE for all graphics rendering on Windows, including the accelerated Canvas2D implementation and the Native Client sandbox environment.
Portions of the ANGLE shader compiler are used as a shader validator and translator by WebGL implementations across multiple platforms. It is used on Mac OS X, Linux, and in mobile variants of the browsers. Having one shader validator helps to ensure that a consistent set of GLSL ES shaders are accepted across browsers and platforms. The shader translator can be used to translate shaders to other shading languages, and to optionally apply shader modifications to work around bugs or quirks in the native graphics drivers. The translator targets Desktop GLSL, Direct3D HLSL, and even ESSL for native GLES2 platforms.
