NAME

glCallList - execute a display list

C SPECIFICATION

void ggllCCaallllLLiisstt( GLuint _l_i_s_t )

        

PARAMETERS

_l_i_s_t
Specifies the integer name of the display list to be executed.

DESCRIPTION

ggllCCaallllLLiisstt causes the named display list to be executed. The commands saved in the display list are executed in order, just as if they were called without using a display list. If _l_i_s_t has not been defined as a display list, ggllCCaallllLLiisstt is ignored.

ggllCCaallllLLiisstt can appear inside a display list. To avoid the possibility of infinite recursion resulting from display lists calling one another, a limit is placed on the nesting level of display lists during display-list execution. This limit is at least 64, and it depends on the implementation.

GL state is not saved and restored across a call to ggllCCaallllLLiisstt. Thus, changes made to GL state during the execution of a display list remain after execution of the display list is completed. Use ggllPPuusshhAAttttrriibb, ggllPPooppAAttttrriibb, ggllPPuusshhMMaattrriixx, and ggllPPooppMMaattrriixx to preserve GL state across ggllCCaallllLLiisstt calls.

NOTES

Display lists can be executed between a call to ggllBBeeggiinn and the corresponding call to ggllEEnndd, as long as the display list includes only commands that are allowed in this interval.
