glGetTexLevelParameter

Name

glGetTexLevelParameter — return texture parameter values for a specific level of detail

C Specification

void glGetTexLevelParameterfv( GLenum target,
  GLint level,
  GLenum pname,
  GLfloat * params);
 
void glGetTexLevelParameteriv( GLenum target,
  GLint level,
  GLenum pname,
  GLint * params);
 

Parameters

target

Specifies the symbolic name of the target texture, one of GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_3D, GL_TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY, GL_TEXTURE_2D_MULTISAMPLE, GL_TEXTURE_2D_MULTISAMPLE_ARRAY, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_POSITIVE_X, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_NEGATIVE_X, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_POSITIVE_Y, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_NEGATIVE_Y, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_POSITIVE_Z, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_NEGATIVE_Z, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_ARRAY, or GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER.

level

Specifies the level-of-detail number of the desired image. Level 0 is the base image level. Level n is the nth mipmap reduction image.

pname

Specifies the symbolic name of a texture parameter. GL_TEXTURE_WIDTH, GL_TEXTURE_HEIGHT, GL_TEXTURE_DEPTH, GL_TEXTURE_INTERNAL_FORMAT, GL_TEXTURE_SAMPLES, GL_TEXTURE_FIXED_SAMPLE_LOCATIONS, GL_TEXTURE_RED_SIZE, GL_TEXTURE_GREEN_SIZE, GL_TEXTURE_BLUE_SIZE, GL_TEXTURE_ALPHA_SIZE, GL_TEXTURE_DEPTH_SIZE, GL_TEXTURE_STENCIL_SIZE, GL_TEXTURE_SHARED_SIZE, GL_TEXTURE_RED_TYPE, GL_TEXTURE_GREEN_TYPE, GL_TEXTURE_BLUE_TYPE, GL_TEXTURE_ALPHA_TYPE, GL_TEXTURE_DEPTH_TYPE, GL_TEXTURE_COMPRESSED, GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER_DATA_STORE_BINDING, GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER_OFFSET, and GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER_SIZE are accepted.

params

Returns the requested data.

Description

glGetTexLevelParameter returns in params texture parameter values for a specific level-of-detail value, specified as level. target defines the target texture, either GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_3D, GL_TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY, GL_TEXTURE_2D_MULTISAMPLE, GL_TEXTURE_2D_MULTISAMPLE_ARRAY, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_POSITIVE_X, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_NEGATIVE_X, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_POSITIVE_Y, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_NEGATIVE_Y, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_POSITIVE_Z, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_NEGATIVE_Z, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_ARRAY, or GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER.

pname specifies the texture parameter whose value or values will be returned.

The accepted parameter names are as follows:

GL_TEXTURE_WIDTH

params returns a single value, the width of the texture image. The initial value is 0.

GL_TEXTURE_HEIGHT

params returns a single value, the height of the texture image. The initial value is 0.

GL_TEXTURE_DEPTH

params returns a single value, the depth of the texture image. The initial value is 0.

GL_TEXTURE_INTERNAL_FORMAT

params returns a single value, the internal format of the texture image.

GL_TEXTURE_SAMPLES

params returns a single value, the number of samples of the texture image.

GL_FIXED_SAMPLE_LOCATIONS

params returns a single boolean value indicating if texture sample fixed locations are enabled.

GL_TEXTURE_RED_TYPE, GL_TEXTURE_GREEN_TYPE, GL_TEXTURE_BLUE_TYPE, GL_TEXTURE_ALPHA_TYPE, GL_TEXTURE_DEPTH_TYPE

The data type used to store the component. The types GL_NONE, GL_SIGNED_NORMALIZED, GL_UNSIGNED_NORMALIZED, GL_FLOAT, GL_INT, and GL_UNSIGNED_INT may be returned to indicate missing, signed normalized fixed-point, unsigned normalized fixed-point, floating-point, signed unnormalized integer, and unsigned unnormalized integer components, respectively.

GL_TEXTURE_RED_SIZE, GL_TEXTURE_GREEN_SIZE, GL_TEXTURE_BLUE_SIZE, GL_TEXTURE_ALPHA_SIZE, GL_TEXTURE_DEPTH_SIZE, GL_TEXTURE_SHARED_SIZE

The actual internal storage resolution of an individual component.

GL_TEXTURE_COMPRESSED

params returns a single boolean value indicating if the texture image is stored in a compressed internal format.

GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER_DATA_STORE_BINDING

params returns the name of the buffer object bound to the data store for a buffer texture. See glTexBufferRange

GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER_OFFSET

params returns a single integer value, the offset into the data store of the buffer bound to a buffer texture. See glTexBufferRange

GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER_SIZE

params returns a single integer value, the size of the range of a data store of the buffer bound to a buffer texture. See glTexBufferRange

Notes

If an error is generated, no change is made to the contents of params.

glGetTexLevelParameter returns the texture level parameters for the active texture unit.

Errors

GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if target or pname is not an accepted value.

GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if level is less than 0.

GL_INVALID_VALUE may be generated if level is greater than log 2 max, where max is the returned value of the relevant one of GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE, GL_MAX_3D_TEXTURE_SIZE or GL_MAX_CUBEMAP_TEXTURE_SIZE.

GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if target is GL_TEXTURE_2D_MULTISAMPLE, GL_TEXTURE_2D_MULTISAMPLE_ARRAY, or GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER, and level is not zero.
