GLXISDIRECT()

NAME

glXIsDirect − indicate whether direct rendering is enabled
 

C SPECIFICATION

Bool glXIsDirect( Display ∗dpy,

GLXContext ctx )

 

PARAMETERS

dpy Specifies the connection to the X server. 

ctx Specifies the GLX context that is being queried. 

DESCRIPTION

glXIsDirect returns True if ctx is a direct rendering context, False otherwise.  Direct rendering contexts pass rendering commands directly from the calling process’s address space to the rendering system, bypassing the X server.  Nondirect rendering contexts pass all rendering commands to the X server. 

ERRORS

GLXBadContext is generated if ctx is not a valid GLX context.
