NAME
glXCreateGLXPbufferSGIX - create a Pbuffer
C SPECIFICATION
GLXPbuffer glXCreateGLXPbufferSGIX ( Display *dpy,
GLXFBConfig config,
unsigned int width,
unsigned int height'
int *attribu_list)
PARAMETERS
dpy Specifies the connection to the X server.
config Specifies the GLX configuration that defines
the capablilty of the Pbuffer.
width Specify the width of Pbuffer.
height Specify the height of Pbuffer.
attrib_list Specifies a list of attributes for the pbuffer.
DESCRIPTION
glXCreateGLXPbufferSGIX creates a non-visible rendering
pixel buffer GLXPbuffer, or pbuffer for short) for an OpenGL
renderer, and returns its XID. GLXPbuffers are equivalent to
GLXPixmaps with the following exceptions:
1. There is no associated X pixmap. Also, since a
GLXPbuffer is a GLX resource, it may not be possible to
render to it using X or an X extension other than GLX.
2. The format of the color buffers and the type and size
of any associated ancillary buffers for a GLXPbuffer
can only be described with a GLXFBConfig which an X
Visual cannot be used.
3. GLXPbuffers can be rendered to using either direct or
indirect rendering contexts.
Any GLX rendering context created with a GLXFBConfig or X
Visual that is "compatible" with the <config> may be used to
render into the pbuffer. (See glXCreateContextWithConfigS-
GIX, glXMakeCurrent, and glXMakeCurrentReadSGI for defini-
tion of "compatible".)
In some implementations, a GLXPbuffer is allocated on off-
screen frame buffer memory. In this case, the contents of a
GLXPbuffer may be asynchronously lost at any time.
<attrib_list> can be NULL, in which case all the attributes
assume their default values as described below. If it not
NULL then each attribute is immediately followed by the
corresponding desired value and the list is terminated with
None.
The two pbuffer attributes are defined:
GLX_LARGEST_PBUFFER_SGIX
If True, the largest available pbuffer s allocated when
the allocation of the pbuffer would otherwise fail. The
width or height of the allocated pbuffer never exceed
<width> and <height>, respectively. The default is
False.
GLX_PRESERVED_CONTENTS_SGIX
If False, then an "unpreserved" pbuffer is created and
the contents of the pbuffer may be lost at any time. If
True, then the contents of the pbuffer will be
preserved when a resource conflict occurs. The default
is True. The client can register to receive a "buffer
clobber" event which is generated when the pbuffer con-
tents have been preserved or have been damaged. (See
glXGetSelectedEventSGIX.)
NOTES
1. The pbuffer contains color buffers and ancillary as
specified by config. In Sun's implementation, Pbuffer
is single-buffered, and the color buffer depth is 24
(See glXChooseFBConfigSGIX). Pbuffer is allocated in
the main memory, and GLX_LARGEST_PBUFFER_SGIX is always
False and GLX_PRESERVED_CONTENTS_SGIX True. That is,
pbuffer content is always preserved.
2. glXCreateGLXPbufferSGIX is part of the SGIX_pbuffer
extension, not part of the core GLX command set. If
SGIX_pbuffer is included in the string returned by
glXQueryExtensionsString, extension SGIX_pbuffer is
supported by the connection.
ERRORS
BadAlloc is generated and None is returned if
glXCreateGLXPbufferSGIX fails to create a GLXPbuffer due to
insufficient resources.
GLXBadFBConfigSGIX is generated if config is not a valid
GLXFBConfig.
BadMatch is generated if config does not support
GLXPbuffers.
