15 | <code class="function">glGetActiveUniformName</code> returns the name of the active uniform at <em class="parameter"><code>uniformIndex</code></em> within <em class="parameter"><code>program</code></em>. | |
16 | If <em class="parameter"><code>uniformName</code></em> is not <code class="code">NULL</code>, up to <em class="parameter"><code>bufSize</code></em> characters (including a nul-terminator) will be written into | |
17 | the array whose address is specified by <em class="parameter"><code>uniformName</code></em>. If <em class="parameter"><code>length</code></em> is not <code class="code">NULL</code>, the number of characters | |
18 | that were (or would have been) written into <em class="parameter"><code>uniformName</code></em> (not including the nul-terminator) will be placed in the variable whose address | |
19 | is specified in <em class="parameter"><code>length</code></em>. If <em class="parameter"><code>length</code></em> is <code class="code">NULL</code>, no length is returned. The length of the longest uniform | |
20 | name in <em class="parameter"><code>program</code></em> is given by the value of <code class="constant">GL_ACTIVE_UNIFORM_MAX_LENGTH</code>, which can be queried with | |
21 | <a class="citerefentry" href="glGetProgram.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">glGetProgram</span></span></a>. | |
22 | </p><p> | |
23 | If <code class="function">glGetActiveUniformName</code> is not successful, nothing is written to <em class="parameter"><code>length</code></em> or <em class="parameter"><code>uniformName</code></em>. | |
24 | </p><p> | |
25 | <em class="parameter"><code>program</code></em> must be the name of a program for which the command <a class="citerefentry" href="glLinkProgram.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">glLinkProgram</span></span></a> | |
26 | has been issued in the past. It is not necessary for <em class="parameter"><code>program</code></em> to have been linked successfully. The link could have failed because | |
27 | the number of active uniforms exceeded the limit. | |
28 | </p><p> | |
29 | <em class="parameter"><code>uniformIndex</code></em> must be an active uniform index of the program <em class="parameter"><code>program</code></em>, in the range zero to | |
30 | <code class="constant">GL_ACTIVE_UNIFORMS</code> - 1. The value of <code class="constant">GL_ACTIVE_UNIFORMS</code> can be queried with | |
31 | <a class="citerefentry" href="glGetProgram.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">glGetProgram</span></span></a>. | |

33 | <code class="constant">GL_INVALID_VALUE</code> is generated if <em class="parameter"><code>uniformIndex</code></em> is greater than or equal to the value | |
