NAME

glTexCoordPointer - define an array of texture coordinates

C SPECIFICATION

void ggllTTeexxCCoooorrddPPooiinntteerr( GLint _s_i_z_e,
                        GLenum _t_y_p_e,
                        GLsizei _s_t_r_i_d_e,
                        const GLvoid _*_p_t_r )

delim $$

PARAMETERS

_s_i_z_e
Specifies the number of coordinates per array element. Must be 1, 2, 3 or 4. The initial value is 4.
_t_y_p_e
Specifies the data type of each texture coordinate. Symbolic constants GGLL__SSHHOORRTT, GGLL__IINNTT, GGLL__FFLLOOAATT, or GGLL__DDOOUUBBLLEE are accepted. The initial value is GGLL__FFLLOOAATT.
_s_t_r_i_d_e
Specifies the byte offset between consecutive array elements. If _s_t_r_i_d_e is 0, the array elements are understood to be tightly packed. The initial value is 0.
_p_t_r
Specifies a pointer to the first coordinate of the first element in the array. The initial value is 0.

DESCRIPTION

ggllTTeexxCCoooorrddPPooiinntteerr specifies the location and data of an array of texture coordinates to use when rendering. _s_i_z_e specifies the number of coordinates per element, and must be 1, 2, 3, or 4. _t_y_p_e specifies the data type of each texture coordinate and _s_t_r_i_d_e specifies the byte stride from one array element to the next allowing vertices and attributes to be packed into a single array or stored in separate arrays. (Single-array storage may be more efficient on some implementations; see
ggllIInntteerrlleeaavveeddAArrrraayyss.) When a texture coordinate array is specified, _s_i_z_e, _t_y_p_e, _s_t_r_i_d_e, and _p_t_r are saved client-side state.

To enable and disable the texture coordinate array, call ggllEEnnaabblleeCClliieennttSSttaattee and ggllDDiissaabblleeCClliieennttSSttaattee with the argument GGLL__TTEEXXTTUURREE__CCOOOORRDD__AARRRRAAYY. If enabled, the texture coordinate array is used when ggllDDrraawwAArrrraayyss, ggllDDrraawwEElleemmeennttss, ggllDDrraawwRRaannggeeEElleemmeennttss or ggllAArrrraayyEElleemmeenntt is called.

Use ggllDDrraawwAArrrraayyss to construct a sequence of primitives (all of the same type) from prespecified vertex and vertex attribute arrays. Use ggllAArrrraayyEElleemmeenntt to specify primitives by indexing vertices and vertex attributes and ggllDDrraawwEElleemmeennttss to construct a sequence of primitives by indexing vertices and vertex attributes.

NOTES

ggllTTeexxCCoooorrddPPooiinntteerr is available only if the GL version is 1.1 or greater.

The texture coordinate array is initially disabled and it won't be accessed when ggllAArrrraayyEElleemmeenntt, ggllDDrraawwEElleemmeennttss, ggllDDrraawwRRaannggeeEElleemmeennttss, or ggllDDrraawwAArrrraayyss is called.

Execution of ggllTTeexxCCoooorrddPPooiinntteerr is not allowed between the execution of ggllBBeeggiinn and the corresponding execution of ggllEEnndd, but an error may or may not be generated. If no error is generated, the operation is undefined.

ggllTTeexxCCoooorrddPPooiinntteerr is typically implemented on the client side with no protocol.

The texture coordinate array parameters are client-side state and are therefore not saved or restored by ggllPPuusshhAAttttrriibb and ggllPPooppAAttttrriibb. Use ggllPPuusshhCClliieennttAAttttrriibb and ggllPPooppCClliieennttAAttttrriibb instead.

When the GGLL__AARRBB__iimmaaggiinngg extension is supported, ggllTTeexxCCoooorrddPPooiinntteerr updates the texture coordinate array state of the active client texture unit, specified with ggllCClliieennttAAccttiivveeTTeexxttuurreeAARRBB.

ERRORS

GGLL__IINNVVAALLIIDD__VVAALLUUEE is generated if _s_i_z_e is not 1, 2, 3, or 4.

GGLL__IINNVVAALLIIDD__EENNUUMM is generated if _t_y_p_e is not an accepted value.

GGLL__IINNVVAALLIIDD__VVAALLUUEE is generated if _s_t_r_i_d_e is negative.
