Uniform variable reported not found LWJGL 3

Question

Introduction

I'm creating a 2D OpenGL game in Java using the LWJGL 3 dependencies in Gradle.

Currently I have implemented a class VertexArray, which handles model data ( vertices , indices , texturecoords ) - including creating and handling the VAOs and VBOs .

I them implemented Shaders and can successfully load uniforms such as mat4 for the projection and transformation matrix. I then added in textures using the org.l33tlabs.twl PNGDecoder and wrapped it all in a class Texture , that handles binding the texture unit, unbinding and deleting the texture from openGL. The bind function also calls shader.setUniform1f("textureSampler",0); before binding the texture.

Code

entityVertex.glsl

#version 400 core

in vec4 position;
in vec2 textureCoords;

out vec2 passTextureCoords;

uniform mat4 projectionMatrix;
uniform mat4 transformationMatrix;

void main()
{
    gl_Position = projectionMatrix * transformationMatrix * position;
    passTextureCoords = textureCoords;
}

entityFragment.glsl #version 400 core

in vec2 passTextureCoords;

out vec4 out_Color;

uniform sampler2D textureSampler;

void main()
{
    vec4 colour = texture(textureSampler,passTextureCoords);
    out_Color = colour;
}

vertexArray render

public void bind() {
    glBindVertexArray(vao);
    glEnableVertexAttribArray(VERTEX_ATTRIB);
    glEnableVertexAttribArray(TCOORD_ATTRIB);
    glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, tbo);
    glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, ibo);
}

public void unbind() {
    glBindBuffer(GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, 0);
    glBindBuffer(GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, 0);
    glDisableVertexAttribArray(VERTEX_ATTRIB);
    glDisableVertexAttribArray(TCOORD_ATTRIB);
    glBindVertexArray(0);
}

public void draw() {
    glDrawElements(GL_TRIANGLES, count, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, 0);
}

public void render(Shader shader, Texture texture) {
    texture.bind(shader);
    bind();
    draw();
    texture.unbind();
    unbind();
}

texture

public void bind(Shader shader) {
    shader.setUniform1f("textureSampler", 0); //<-- Line that throws error
    glActiveTexture(GL_TEXTURE0);
    glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture);
}

public void unbind() {
    glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0);
}

Problem

When I run this, I get the error "Could not find uniform variable 'textureSampler'!" from this method in the shader:

private Map<String, Integer> locationCache = new HashMap<>();

public int getUniform(String name) {
    if (locationCache.containsKey(name))
        return locationCache.get(name);
    int result = glGetUniformLocation(ID, name);
    if (result == 1) System.err.println("Could not find uniform variable '" + name + "'!");
    else locationCache.put(name, result);
    return result;
}

public void setUniform1f(String name, float value) {
    if (!enabled) start();
    glUniform1f(getUniform(name), value);
}

Here is a link to the main Git repo, if you clone you will need to import and updade submodules (im making the same game in java awt and openGL) Here is a link to the GL specific submodule

Any obvious issues? If you need to see more code please let me know.

如果名称不是指定程序中活动统一变量的名称，则glGetUniformLocation返回 -1：

if (result == 1) System.err.println("Could not find uniform variable '" + name + "'!");

if (result == -1) System.err.println("Could not find uniform variable '" + name + "'!");
