glGetVertexAttribPointerv

Name

glGetVertexAttribPointerv — return the address of the specified generic vertex attribute pointer

C Specification

void glGetVertexAttribPointerv(GLuint index,
 GLenum pname,
 GLvoid **pointer);
 

Parameters

index

Specifies the generic vertex attribute parameter to be returned.

pname

Specifies the symbolic name of the generic vertex attribute parameter to be returned. Must be GL_VERTEX_ATTRIB_ARRAY_POINTER.

pointer

Returns the pointer value.

Description

glGetVertexAttribPointerv returns pointer information. index is the generic vertex attribute to be queried, 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.

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.

Notes

The pointer returned is client-side state.

The initial value for each pointer is 0.

Errors

GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if pname is not an accepted value.

GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if index is greater than or equal to GL_MAX_VERTEX_ATTRIBS.

Associated Gets

glGet with argument GL_MAX_VERTEX_ATTRIBS
