glGenTextures(3) glGenTextures(3)
NAME
glGenTextures - generate texture names
C SPECIFICATION
void glGenTextures( GLsizei n,
GLuint *textures )
PARAMETERS
n Specifies the number of texture names to be generated.
textures Specifies an array in which the generated texture names are
stored.
DESCRIPTION
glGenTextures returns n texture names in textures. There is no guaran-
tee that the names form a contiguous set of integers; however, it is
guaranteed that none of the returned names was in use immediately
before the call to glGenTextures.
The generated textures have no dimensionality; they assume the dimen-
sionality of the texture target to which they are first bound (see
glBindTexture).
Texture names returned by a call to glGenTextures are not returned by
subsequent calls, unless they are first deleted with glDeleteTextures.
NOTES
glGenTextures is available only if the GL version is 1.1 or greater.
ERRORS
GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if n is negative.
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glGenTextures is executed between
the execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd.
ASSOCIATED GETS
glIsTexture
