DESCRIPTION

gluErrorString() produces an error string from a GL or GLU error code. The string is in ISO Latin 1 format. For example, gluErrorString()(GL_OUT_OF_MEMORY) returns the string out of memory. 

The standard GLU error codes are GLU_INVALID_ENUM, GLU_INVALID_VALUE, and GLU_OUT_OF_MEMORY. Certain other GLU functions can return specialized error codes through callbacks.  See the glGetError() reference page for the list of GL error codes.
