glXWaitGL(3G)		    OpenGL Reference - GLX		 glXWaitGL(3G)

NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     glXWaitGL - complete GL execution prior to	subsequent X calls

C SPECIFICATION    [Toc]    [Back]

     void glXWaitGL( void )

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     GL	rendering calls	made prior to glXWaitGL	are guaranteed to be executed
     before X rendering	calls made after glXWaitGL.  Although this same	result
     can be achieved using glFinish, glXWaitGL does not	require	a round	trip
     to	the server, and	it is therefore	more efficient in cases	where client
     and server	are on separate	machines.

     glXWaitGL is ignored if there is no current GLX context.

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

     glXWaitGL may or may not flush the	X stream.

ERRORS    [Toc]    [Back]

     GLXBadCurrentWindow is generated if the drawable associated with the
     current context of	the calling thread is a	window,	and that window	is no
     longer valid.
