7 <code class="function">glPushClientAttrib</code> takes one argument,
8 a mask that indicates which groups of client-state variables
9 to save on the client attribute stack.
10 Symbolic constants are used to set bits in the mask.
11 <em class="parameter"><code>mask</code></em>
12 is typically constructed by specifying the bitwise-or of several
13 of these constants together.
14 The special mask
15 <code class="constant">GL_CLIENT_ALL_ATTRIB_BITS</code>
16 can be used to save all stackable client state.
17 </p><p>
18 The symbolic mask constants and their associated GL client state are as follows
19 (the second column lists which attributes are saved):
20 </p><p>
21 <code class="constant">GL_CLIENT_PIXEL_STORE_BIT</code> Pixel storage modes
22 <code class="constant">GL_CLIENT_VERTEX_ARRAY_BIT</code> Vertex arrays (and enables)
23 </p><p>
24 <a class="citerefentry" href="glPopClientAttrib.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">glPopClientAttrib</span></span></a> restores the values of the client-state variables
25 saved with the last <code class="function">glPushClientAttrib</code>.
26 Those not saved are left unchanged.
27 </p><p>
28 It is an error to push attributes onto a full client attribute stack
29 or to pop attributes off an empty stack.
30 In either case, the error flag is set,
31 and no other change is made to GL state.
32 </p><p>
33 Initially, the client attribute stack is empty.
34 </p></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en" xml:lang="en"><a id="notes"></a><h2>Notes</h2><p>
35 <code class="function">glPushClientAttrib</code> is available only if the GL version is 1.1 or greater.
36 </p><p>
37 Not all values for GL client state can be saved on the attribute stack.
38 For example, select and feedback state cannot be saved.
39 </p><p>
40 The depth of the attribute stack depends on the implementation,
41 but it must be at least 16.
42 </p><p>
43 Use <a class="citerefentry" href="glPushAttrib.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">glPushAttrib</span></span></a> and <a class="citerefentry" href="glPopAttrib.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">glPopAttrib</span></span></a> to push and restore
44 state that is kept on the server. Only pixel storage modes and
45 vertex array state may be pushed and popped with
46 <code class="function">glPushClientAttrib</code> and <a class="citerefentry" href="glPopClientAttrib.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">glPopClientAttrib</span></span></a>.
47 </p><p>
48 For OpenGL versions 1.3 and greater, or when the <code class="code">ARB_multitexture</code> extension is supported, pushing and
49 popping client vertex array state applies to all supported texture units,
50 and the active client texture state.

52 <code class="constant">GL_STACK_OVERFLOW</code> is generated if <code class="function">glPushClientAttrib</code> is called while
