21 <code class="function">glGetDebugMessageLog</code> retrieves messages from the debug message log. A maximum of
22 <em class="parameter"><code>count</code></em> messages are retrieved from the log. If <em class="parameter"><code>sources</code></em>
23 is not NULL then the source of each message is written into up to <em class="parameter"><code>count</code></em> elements
24 of the array. If <em class="parameter"><code>types</code></em>
25 is not NULL then the type of each message is written into up to <em class="parameter"><code>count</code></em> elements
26 of the array. If <em class="parameter"><code>id</code></em>
27 is not NULL then the identifier of each message is written into up to <em class="parameter"><code>count</code></em> elements
28 of the array. If <em class="parameter"><code>severities</code></em>
29 is not NULL then the severity of each message is written into up to <em class="parameter"><code>count</code></em> elements
30 of the array. If <em class="parameter"><code>lengths</code></em>
31 is not NULL then the length of each message is written into up to <em class="parameter"><code>count</code></em> elements
32 of the array.
33 </p><p>
34 <em class="parameter"><code>messageLog</code></em> specifies the address of a character array into which the debug messages
35 will be written. Each message will be concatenated onto the array starting at the first element of <em class="parameter"><code>messageLog</code></em>.
36 <em class="parameter"><code>bufSize</code></em> specifies the size of the array <em class="parameter"><code>messageLog</code></em>. If a message will not
37 fit into the remaining space in <em class="parameter"><code>messageLog</code></em> then the function terminates and returns the number
38 of messages written so far, which may be zero.
39 </p><p>
40 If <code class="function">glGetDebugMessageLog</code> returns zero then no messages are present in the debug log, or there
41 was not enough space in <em class="parameter"><code>messageLog</code></em> to retrieve the first message in the queue. If <em class="parameter"><code>messageLog</code></em>
42 is NULL then no messages are written and the value of <em class="parameter"><code>bufSize</code></em> is ignored.

44 Although debug messages may be enabled in a non-debug context, the quantity and detail of such messages may be substantially
45 inferior to those in a debug context. In particular, a valid implementation of the debug message queue in a non-debug context
46 may produce no messages at all.
47 </p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en" xml:lang="en"><a id="errors"></a><h2>Errors</h2><p>
48 <code class="constant">GL_INVALID_VALUE</code> is generated if <em class="parameter"><code>count</code></em> or <em class="parameter"><code>bufSize</code></em> is negative.
