10 | <code class="function">glXGetClientString</code> returns a string | |
11 | describing some aspect of the client library. The possible values for <em class="parameter"><code>name</code></em> | |
12 | are <code class="constant">GLX_VENDOR</code>, <code class="constant">GLX_VERSION</code>, and | |
13 | <code class="constant">GLX_EXTENSIONS</code>. If <em class="parameter"><code>name</code></em> | |
14 | is not set to one of these values, <code class="function">glXGetClientString</code> returns <code class="constant">NULL</code>. | |
15 | The format and contents of the vendor string is implementation dependent. | |
16 | </p><p> | |
17 | The extensions string is null-terminated and contains a | |
18 | space-separated list of extension names. (The extension names never | |
19 | contain spaces.) | |
20 | If there are no extensions to GLX, then the empty string is returned. | |
21 | </p><p> | |
22 | The version string is laid out as follows: | |
23 | </p><p> | |
24 | <major_version.minor_version><space><vendor-specific info> | |
25 | </p><p> | |
26 | Both the major and minor portions of the version number are of arbitrary | |
27 | length. The vendor-specific information is optional. However, if it is | |
28 | present, the format and contents are implementation specific. | |
29 | </p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en" xml:lang="en"><a id="notes"></a><h2>Notes</h2><p> | |
30 | <code class="function">glXGetClientString</code> is available only if the GLX version is 1.1 or greater. | |
31 | </p><p> | |
32 | If the GLX version is 1.1 or 1.0, the GL version must be 1.0. | |
33 | If the GLX version is 1.2, then the GL version must be 1.1. | |
34 | If the GLX version is 1.3, then the GL version must be 1.2. | |
35 | </p><p> | |
36 | <code class="function">glXGetClientString</code> only returns information about GLX extensions supported by the client. | |
37 | Call <a class="citerefentry" href="glGetString.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">glGetString</span></span></a> to get a list of GL extensions supported by the server. | |
