Parameters
name
Either the
version number of GLU (GLU_VERSION) or available vendor-specific extension
calls (GLU_EXTENSIONS).
Remarks
The gluGetString
function returns a pointer to a static, null-terminated string. When name
is GLU_VERSION, the returned string is a value that represents the version
number of GLU. The format of the version number is as follows:
<version
number><space><vendor-specific information>
(for example, 1.2.11 Microsoft Windows NT )
The version
number has the form major_number.minor_number or
major_number.minor_number.release_number . The vendor-specific information is
optional, and the format and contents depend on the implementation.
When name
is GLU_EXTENSIONS, the returned string contains a list of names of supported
GLU extensions that are separated by spaces. The format of the returned list of
names is as follows:
<extension_name><space><extension_name><space>
. . .
(for example, GLU_NURBS GL_TESSELATION )
The extension
names cannot contain any spaces.
The gluGetString
function is valid for GLU version 1.1 or later.
