RRGlossCausticShader
====================Originally developed by Matt Gallagher, further developed by Roy Ratcliffe, ported to iPhone by Ole Begemann, and now with additional refactoring by Roy Ratcliffe. Call it a team effort!

-----1. Add the files in the root folder to your Xcode project, namely: `RRGlossCausticShader.h`/`m` for the gloss-caustic shader, `RRCausticColorMatcher.h`/`m` for the caustic colour matcher, `RRExponentialFunction.h`/`m` for the exponential helper, `RRLuminanceFromRGBComponents.h`/`m` for luminance conversion, `UIColor+RRUIKit.h`/`m` for `UIColor` extensions (iPhone only).
1. Create an instance of `RRGlossCausticShader`.
1. Optionally modify the shader's base colour and parameters (see `RRGlossCausticShader.h` and `RRCausticColorMatcher.h` for the possible settings).
1. In your `-drawRect:` method, do something like this:CGRect bounds = self.bounds;
[shader drawShadingFromPoint:bounds.origin
toPoint:CGPointMake(bounds.origin.x, bounds.origin.y + bounds.size.height)
inContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];MIT License
