glGetBufferParameteriv: return parameters of a buffer object

Function Definition

 void glGetBufferParameteriv(GLenum target​, GLenum value​, GLint * data​);
target
Specifies the target buffer object. The symbolic constant must be GL_ARRAY_BUFFER, GL_COPY_READ_BUFFER, GL_COPY_WRITE_BUFFER, GL_ELEMENT_ARRAY_BUFFER, GL_PIXEL_PACK_BUFFER, GL_PIXEL_UNPACK_BUFFER, GL_TEXTURE_BUFFER, GL_TRANSFORM_FEEDBACK_BUFFER, or GL_UNIFORM_BUFFER.
value
Specifies the symbolic name of a buffer object parameter. Accepted values are GL_BUFFER_ACCESS, GL_BUFFER_MAPPED, GL_BUFFER_SIZE, or GL_BUFFER_USAGE.
data
Returns the requested parameter.

Description

glGetBufferParameteriv returns in data​ a selected parameter of the buffer object specified by target​.

value​ names a specific buffer object parameter, as follows:

GL_BUFFER_ACCESS
params​ returns the access policy set while mapping the buffer object. The initial value is GL_READ_WRITE.
GL_BUFFER_MAPPED
params​ returns a flag indicating whether the buffer object is currently mapped. The initial value is GL_FALSE.
GL_BUFFER_SIZE
params​ returns the size of the buffer object, measured in bytes. The initial value is 0.
GL_BUFFER_USAGE
params​ returns the buffer object's usage pattern. The initial value is GL_STATIC_DRAW.

Notes

If an error is generated, no change is made to the contents of data​.

Errors

GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if target​ or value​ is not an accepted value.

GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if the reserved buffer object name 0 is bound to target​.
