104 <function>glGetDebugMessageLog</function> retrieves messages from the debug message log. A maximum of\r
105 <parameter>count</parameter> messages are retrieved from the log. If <parameter>sources</parameter>\r
106 is not NULL then the source of each message is written into up to <parameter>count</parameter> elements\r
107 of the array. If <parameter>types</parameter>\r
108 is not NULL then the type of each message is written into up to <parameter>count</parameter> elements\r
109 of the array. If <parameter>id</parameter>\r
110 is not NULL then the identifier of each message is written into up to <parameter>count</parameter> elements\r
111 of the array. If <parameter>severities</parameter>\r
112 is not NULL then the severity of each message is written into up to <parameter>count</parameter> elements\r
113 of the array. If <parameter>lengths</parameter>\r
114 is not NULL then the length of each message is written into up to <parameter>count</parameter> elements\r
115 of the array.\r
116 </para>\r
117 <para>\r
118 <parameter>messageLog</parameter> specifies the address of a character array into which the debug messages\r
119 will be written. Each message will be concatenated onto the array starting at the first element of <parameter>messageLog</parameter>.\r
120 <parameter>bufSize</parameter> specifies the size of the array <parameter>messageLog</parameter>. If a message will not\r
121 fit into the remaining space in <parameter>messageLog</parameter> then the function terminates and returns the number\r
122 of messages written so far, which may be zero.\r
123 </para>\r
124 <para>\r
125 If <function>glGetDebugMessageLog</function> returns zero then no messages are present in the debug log, or there\r
126 was not enough space in <parameter>messageLog</parameter> to retrieve the first message in the queue. If <parameter>messageLog</parameter>\r
127 is NULL then no messages are written and the value of <parameter>bufSize</parameter> is ignored.\r

132 Although debug messages may be enabled in a non-debug context, the quantity and detail of such messages may be substantially\r
133 inferior to those in a debug context. In particular, a valid implementation of the debug message queue in a non-debug context\r
134 may produce no messages at all.\r
