<p>A shader can take n inputs and can produce m outputs. The order of the input (or output) parameters, their associated types, and any attached semantics make up the shader signature. Each shader has an input and an output signature.</p><p>When compiling a shader or an effect, some API calls validate shader signatures That is, they compare the output signature of one shader (like a vertex shader) with the input signature of another shader (like a pixel shader). This ensures that a shader outputs data that is compatible with a downstream shader that is consuming that data. Compatible means that a shader signature is a exact-match subset of the preceding shader stage. Exact match means parameter types and semantics must exactly match. Subset means that a parameter that is not required by a downstream stage, does not need to include that parameter in its shader signature.</p><p>Get a shader-signature from a shader or an effect by calling APIs such as <strong><seecref="M:SharpDX.D3DCompiler.ShaderReflection.GetInputParameterDescription(System.Int32)"/></strong>. </p>
