GLGENBUFFERS(3gl)GLGENBUFFERS(3gl)NAME
glGenBuffers - generate buffer names
C SPECIFICATION
void glGenBuffers( GLsizei n,
GLuint *buffers )
PARAMETERS
n Specifies the number of buffer names to be generated.
buffers Specifies an array in which the generated buffer names are
stored.
DESCRIPTION
glGenBuffers returns n buffer names in buffers. There is no guarantee
that the names form a contiguous set of integers; however, it is guar‐
anteed that none of the returned names was in use immediately before
the call to glGenBuffers.
Buffer names returned by a call to glGenBuffers are not returned by
subsequent calls, unless they are first deleted with glDeleteBuffers.
NOTES
glGenBuffers is available only if the GL version is 1.5 or greater.
ERRORS
GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if n is negative.
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glGenBuffers is executed between
the execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd.
