GLCLEARSTENCIL(3G)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay bestie, this is GLCLEARSTENCIL(3G) — the manual page for glClearStencil, aka specify the clear value for the stencil buffer. 💅✨

---

🧚 C SPECIFICATION 🧚

void glClearStencil( GLint s )

---

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

• s — specifies the index used when the stencil buffer is cleared. The initial value is 0. 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

glClearStencil specifies the index used by glClear to clear the stencil buffer. no cap. ✨

<pink>s</pink> is masked with 2m−1, where <purple>m</purple> is the number of bits in the stencil buffer. that masking detail is literally the whole vibe check, bestie. 💅

---

💀 ERRORS 💀

• GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glClearStencil is executed between the execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd. 🚨

okay so this is the “not while you’re inside glBegin/glEnd, bestie” rule. do not test it unless you enjoy GL_INVALID_OPERATION drama. 😭

that’s the whole page, bestie — GLCLEARSTENCIL(3G) from the 3G OpenGL manual pages. the original footer didn’t print a separate source/version or date line, so I’m not inventing one. 💖✨
