glCreateQueries(3G) — query objects but make it fashion 💅✨

hiii bestie!! welcome to the GLCREATEQUERIES(3G) manual page — manual section 3G, function glCreateQueries, and honestly it's giving short but iconic 💖. no cap, here's the whole thing with all the deets.

NAME 💖

glCreateQueries — create query objects, periodt.

C SPECIFICATION 🧾

void glCreateQueries(GLenum target, GLsizei n, GLuint *ids);

PARAMETERS 🎀

  • target — tells you the target of each query object you're creating. it's the vibe each new query object is born with ✨
  • n — the number of query objects to create. yes, n, the classic “how many?” bestie.
  • ids — an array where the names of the new query objects get stored. it's the lil home for your fresh names 🫶

DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so glCreateQueries returns n previously unused query object names in ids. each one represents a brand-new query object with the specified target. slay.

target may be one of these, bestie:

  • GL_SAMPLES_PASSED
  • GL_ANY_SAMPLES_PASSED
  • GL_ANY_SAMPLES_PASSED_CONSERVATIVE
  • GL_TIME_ELAPSED
  • GL_TIMESTAMP
  • GL_PRIMITIVES_GENERATED
  • GL_TRANSFORM_FEEDBACK_PRIMITIVES_WRITTEN

and that's the list — no extras, no invented options, iykyk.

ERRORS 😭

  • GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if target is not an accepted value. so if you pass a random target, GL is like “not on the list, bestie” 💀
  • GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if n is negative. negative query count? not the move, fr fr.
