glXCreateContext

NAME

glXCreateContext - create a new GLX rendering context

C SPECIFICATION

GLXContext glXCreateContext( Display *dpy, XVisualInfo *vis, GLXContext shareList, Bool direct )

PARAMETERS

dpy ? Specifies the connection to the X server.

vis ? Specifies the visual that defines the frame buffer resources available to the rendering context. It is a pointer to an XVisualInfo structure, not a visual ID or a pointer to a Visual.

shareList ? Specifies the context with which to share display lists. NULL indicates that no sharing is to take place.

direct ? Specifies whether rendering is to be done with a direct connection to the graphics system if possible (True) or through the X server (False).

DESCRIPTION

glXCreateContext creates a GLX rendering context and returns its handle. This context can be used to render into both windows and GLX pixmaps. If glXCreateContext fails to create a rendering context, NULL is returned.

If direct is True, then a direct rendering context is created if the implementation supports direct rendering and the connection is to an X server that is local. If direct is False, then a rendering context that renders through the X server is always created. Direct rendering provides a performance advantage in some implementations. However, direct rendering contexts cannot be shared outside a single process, and they cannot be used to render to GLX pixmaps.

If shareList is not NULL, then all display-list indexes and definitions are shared by context shareList and by the newly created context. An arbitrary number of contexts can share a single display-list space. However, all rendering contexts that share a single display-list space must themselves exist in the same address space. Two rendering contexts share an address space if both are nondirect using the same server, or if both are direct and owned by a single process. Note that in the nondirect case, it is not necessary for the calling threads to share an address space, only for their related rendering contexts to share an address space.

NOTES

XVisualInfo is defined in Xutil.h. It is a structure that includes visual, visualID, screen, and depth elements.

A process is a single execution environment, implemented in a single address space, consisting of one or more threads.

A thread is one of a set of subprocesses that share a single address space, but maintain separate program counters, stack spaces, and other related global data. A thread that is the only member of its subprocess group is equivalent to a process.

ERRORS

NULL is returned if execution fails on the client side.

BadMatch is generated if the context to be created would not share the address space or the screen of the context specified by shareList.

BadValue is generated if vis is not a valid visual (e.g., if the GLX implementation does not support it).

GLX_Bad_Context is generated if shareList is not a GLX context and is not NULL.

BadAlloc is generated if the server does not have enough resources to allocate the new context.
