NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     glXCreateWindow - create an on-screen rendering area

C SPECIFICATION    [Toc]    [Back]

     GLXWindow glXCreateWindow(	Display	*dpy,
				GLXFBConfig config,
				Window win,
				int *attrib_list )

PARAMETERS    [Toc]    [Back]

     dpy	  Specifies the	connection to the X server.

     config	  Specifies a GLXFBConfig structure with the desired
		  attributes for the window.

     win	  Specifies the	X window to be used as the rendering area.

     attrib_list  Currently unused. This must be set to	NULL, or be an empty
		  list (i.e. one in which the first element is None).

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     glXCreateWindow creates an	on-screen rendering area from an existing X
     window which was created with a visual which matches config. the XID of
     the GLXWindow is returned.	 Any GLX rendering context that	was created
     with respect to config can	be used	to render into this window.  Use
     glXMakeContextCurrent to associate	the rendering area with	a GLX
     rendering context.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

     glXCreateWindow is	available only if the GLX version is 1.3 or greater.

     If	the GLX	version	is 1.1 or 1.0, the GL version must be 1.0.  If the GLX
     version is	1.2, then the GL version must be 1.1.  If the GLX version is
     1.3, then the GL version must be 1.2.

ERRORS    [Toc]    [Back]

     BadMatch is generated if win was not created with a visual	that
     corresponds to config.

     BadMatch is generated if config does not support rendering	to windows
     (i.e. GLX_DRAWABLE_TYPE does not contain GLX_WINDOW_BIT).

     BadWindow is generated if win is not a valid window XID.

     BadAlloc is generated if there is already a GLXFBConfig associated	with
     win.

     BadAlloc is generated if the X server cannot allocate a new GLX window.
