GLGETOBJECTPTRLABEL(3G)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the GLGETOBJECTPTRLABEL(3G) page — that's the 3G manual, and yes the name is a whole mouthful 😭. This function is literally here to retrieve the label of a sync object identified by a pointer. slay.

✨ C SPECIFICATION ✨

void glGetObjectPtrLabel(void * ptr, GLsizei bufSize, GLsizei * length,
                         char * label);

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

• ptr — the name of the sync object whose label you're retrieving.
• bufSize — the length of the buffer whose address is in label.
• length — the address of a variable that receives the length of the object label.
• label — the address of a string that will receive the object label.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So here's the vibe: glGetObjectPtrLabel retrieves the label of the sync object identified by ptr.

label is the address of a string that will be used to store the object label. bufSize specifies the number of characters in the array identified by label. length contains the address of a variable which will receive the number of characters in the object label. If length is NULL, then it is ignored and no data is written. Likewise, if label is NULL, or if bufSize is zero then no data is written to label.

🔥 ERRORS 🔥

• GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if identifier is not one of the accepted object types.
• GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if ptr is not the name of an existing sync object.
• GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if bufSize is zero.

⚠️ big warning, bestie: if not NULL, length and label should be addresses to which the client has write access, otherwise undefined behavior, including process termination may occur. that's not a vibe — it's giving process termination 💀.

🦋 ASSOCIATED GETS 🦋

glGet() with argument GL_MAX_LABEL_LENGTH.
