NAME
glGetPointerv - return the address of the specified pointer
C SPECIFICATION
void glGetPointerv(GLenum pname, GLvoid ** params);
PARAMETERS
pname
Specifies the array or buffer pointer to be returned. Symbolic
constants GL_COLOR_ARRAY_POINTER, GL_EDGE_FLAG_ARRAY_POINTER,
GL_FOG_COORD_ARRAY_POINTER, GL_FEEDBACK_BUFFER_POINTER,
GL_INDEX_ARRAY_POINTER, GL_NORMAL_ARRAY_POINTER,
GL_SECONDARY_COLOR_ARRAY_POINTER, GL_SELECTION_BUFFER_POINTER,
GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY_POINTER, or GL_VERTEX_ARRAY_POINTER are
accepted.
params
Returns the pointer value specified by pname.
DESCRIPTION
glGetPointerv returns pointer information. pname is a symbolic
constant indicating the pointer to be returned, and params is a pointer
to a location in which to place the returned data.
For all pname arguments except GL_FEEDBACK_BUFFER_POINTER and
GL_SELECTION_BUFFER_POINTER, if a non-zero named buffer object was
bound to the GL_ARRAY_BUFFER target (see glBindBuffer()) when the
desired pointer was previously specified, the pointer returned is a
byte offset into the buffer object's data store. Buffer objects are
only available in OpenGL versions 1.5 and greater.
NOTES
glGetPointerv is available only if the GL version is 1.1 or greater.
GL_FOG_COORD_ARRAY_POINTER and GL_SECONDARY_COLOR_ARRAY_POINTER are
available only if the GL version is 1.4 or greater.
The pointers are all client-side state.
The initial value for each pointer is 0.
For OpenGL versions 1.3 and greater, or when the ARB_multitexture
extension is supported, querying the GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY_POINTER
returns the value for the active client texture unit.
ERRORS
GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if pname is not an accepted value.
