78 <function>glGetSynciv</function> retrieves properties of a sync object. <parameter>sync</parameter> specifies the name of the sync\r
79 object whose properties to retrieve.\r
80 </para>\r
81 <para>\r
82 On success, <function>glGetSynciv</function> replaces up to <parameter>bufSize</parameter> integers in <parameter>values</parameter> with the\r
83 corresponding property values of the object being queried. The actual number of integers replaced is returned in the variable whose address is\r
84 specified in <parameter>length</parameter>. If <parameter>length</parameter> is <code>NULL</code>, no length is returned.\r

87 If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_OBJECT_TYPE</constant>, a single value representing the specific type of the sync object is\r

91 If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_SYNC_STATUS</constant>, a single value representing the status of the sync object\r
92 (<constant>GL_SIGNALED</constant> or <constant>GL_UNSIGNALED</constant>) is placed in <parameter>values</parameter>.\r
93 </para>\r
94 <para>\r
95 If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_SYNC_CONDITION</constant>, a single value representing the condition of the sync object\r
96 is placed in <parameter>values</parameter>. The only condition supported is <constant>GL_SYNC_GPU_COMMANDS_COMPLETE</constant>.\r
97 </para>\r
98 <para>\r
99 If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_SYNC_FLAGS</constant>, a single value representing the flags with which the sync object\r
100 was created is placed in <parameter>values</parameter>. No flags are currently supported<footnote><para><parameter>flags</parameter> is\r
101 expected to be used in future extensions to the sync objects.</para></footnote>.\r
