GPUCompilationMessage: type property

Secure contextAvailable in workers

The type read-only property of the GPUCompilationMessage interface is an enumerated value representing the type of the message. Each type represents a different severity level.

Value

An enumerated value. Possible values are:

• "error"
  • : A shader-creation error, which stops successful compilation.
• "info"
  • : A purely informative message, which is low severity.
• "warning"
  • : A warning about an issue that will not stop successful compilation, but merits attention by the developer. An example is usage of deprecated functions or syntax.

Examples

const shaderModule = device.createShaderModule({
  code: shaders,
});

const shaderInfo = await shaderModule.getCompilationInfo();
const firstMessage = shaderInfo.messages[0];
console.log(firstMessage.type);

See the main GPUCompilationInfo page for a more detailed example.
