6 <code class="function">gluTessBeginContour</code> and <a class="citerefentry" href="gluTessEndContour.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">gluTessEndContour</span></span></a> delimit the definition of a

8 pair, there can be zero or more calls to <a class="citerefentry" href="gluTessVertex.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">gluTessVertex</span></span></a>. The vertices
9 specify a closed contour (the last vertex of each contour is automatically linked
10 to the first). See the <a class="citerefentry" href="gluTessVertex.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">gluTessVertex</span></span></a> reference page for more details.
11 <code class="function">gluTessBeginContour</code> can only be called between <a class="citerefentry" href="gluTessBeginPolygon.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">gluTessBeginPolygon</span></span></a> and <a class="citerefentry" href="gluTessEndPolygon.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">gluTessEndPolygon</span></span></a>.
