C SPECIFICATION

10       void glGetPointerv( GLenum pname,
11                           void **params )

PARAMETERS

15       pname   Specifies the array or buffer pointer to be returned.  Symbolic
16               constants  GL_COLOR_ARRAY_POINTER,  GL_EDGE_FLAG_ARRAY_POINTER,
17               GL_FEEDBACK_BUFFER_POINTER,             GL_INDEX_ARRAY_POINTER,
18               GL_NORMAL_ARRAY_POINTER,        GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY_POINTER,
19               GL_SELECTION_BUFFER_POINTER,  and  GL_VERTEX_ARRAY_POINTER  are
20               accepted.
21
22       params  Returns the pointer value specified by pname.
23

DESCRIPTION

25       glGetPointerv returns pointer information. pname is a symbolic constant
26       indicating  the  pointer  to  be returned, and params is a pointer to a
27       location in which to place the returned data.
28

NOTES

30       glGetPointerv is available only if the GL version is 1.1 or greater.
31
32       The pointers are all client-side state.
33
34       The initial value for each pointer is 0.
35
36       When the  GL_ARB_multitexture  extension  is  supported,  querying  the
37       GL_TEXTURE_COORD_ARRAY_POINTER  returns the value for the active client
38       texture unit.
39

ERRORS

41       GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if pname is not an accepted value.
