 * NAME:        VEX_RslResolver.h ( VEX Library, C++)
 *
 * COMMENTS:    Resolver for Rsl (RenderMan Shader Language).
 *
 *      Since shader code can't be embedded in a RIB stream, the way this
 *      resolver works is that:
 *        - The resolver will save the object code to a pre-defined directory.
 *        - The shader name will be changed to point to the object code in
 *          question.
