GLUGETSTRING(3G)    UNIX Programmer's Manual     GLUGETSTRING(3G)

NAME

     gluGetString - return a string describing the GLU version or
     GLU extensions

C SPECIFICATION

     const GLubyte * gluGetString( GLenum name )

PARAMETERS

     name  Specifies a symbolic constant, one of GLU_VERSION, or
           GLU_EXTENSIONS.

DESCRIPTION

     gluGetString returns a pointer to a static string describing
     the GLU version or the GLU extensions that are supported.

     The version number is one of the following forms:

     major_number.minor_number
     major_number.minor_number.release_number.

     The version string is of the following form:

     version number<space>vendor-specific information

     Vendor-specific information is optional. Its  and contents
     depend on the implementation.

     The standard GLU contains a basic set of features and capa-
     bilities. If a company or group of companies wish to support
     other features, these may be included as extensions to the
     GLU. If name is GLU_EXTENSIONS, then gluGetString returns a
     space-separated list of names of supported GLU extensions.
     (Extension names never contain spaces.)

     All strings are null-terminated.

NOTES

     gluGetString only returns information about GLU extensions.
     Call glGetString to get a list of GL extensions.

     gluGetString is an initialization routine. Calling it after
     a glNewList results in undefined behavior.

ERRORS

     NULL is returned if name is not GLU_VERSION or
     GLU_EXTENSIONS.
