/**
 * The ShaderAttributeValue object encapsulates a uniform shader
 * attribute whose value is specified explicitly. The shader variable
 * attrName is explicitly set to the specified
 * value during rendering. attrName must be
 * the name of a valid uniform attribute in the shader in which it is
 * used. Otherwise, the attribute name will be ignored and a runtime
 * error may be generated. The value must be an instance
 * of one of the allowed classes. The allowed classes are:
 * Integer, Float,
 * Tuple{2,3,4}{i,f}, Matrix{3,4}f. A
 * ClassCastException will be thrown if a specified value
 * object is not one of the allowed types. Further, the type of the
 * value is immutable once a ShaderAttributeValue is constructed.
 * Subsequent setValue operations must be called with an object of the
 * same type as the one that was used to construct the
 * ShaderAttributeValue. Finally, the type of the value
 * object must match the type of the corresponding
 * attrName variable in the shader in which it is
 * used. Otherwise, the shader will not be able to use the attribute
 * and a runtime error may be generated.
 *
 * @see ShaderAttributeSet
 * @see ShaderProgram
