GLGENTRANSFORMFEEDBA(3G)

✨ NAME ✨

Okay bestie, welcome to the GLGENTRANSFORMFEEDBA(3G) manual page πŸ’– β€” the header even has a little [FIXME: manual] placeholder in it, and we're keeping that detail. This is all about glGenTransformFeedbacks, whose whole job is to reserve transform feedback object names. No cap.


🧾 C SPECIFICATION 🧾

void glGenTransformFeedbacks(GLsizei n, GLuint *ids);

πŸŽ€ PARAMETERS πŸŽ€

  • n β€” says how many transform feedback object names to reserve.
  • ids β€” an array of into which the reserved names will be written. (Yes, that's the page's wording and I'm keeping it exact, bestie πŸ’…)

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

glGenTransformFeedbacks returns n previously unused transform feedback object names in ids. Those names are marked as used β€” but important vibe check β€” for the purposes of glGenTransformFeedbacks only. They acquire transform feedback state only when they are first bound. Periodt. ✨


πŸ”Ž ASSOCIATED GETS πŸ”Ž

You can peek at this stuff with:

  • glGet() with argument GL_TRANSFORM_FEEDBACK_BINDING
  • glIsTransformFeedback()

🌈 VERSION SUPPORT 🌈
