        <para><function>glShaderSource</function> sets the source code
        in <parameter>shader</parameter> to the source code in the array
        of strings specified by <parameter>string</parameter>. Any
        source code previously stored in the shader object is completely
        replaced. The number of strings in the array is specified by
        <parameter>count</parameter>. If <parameter>length</parameter>
        is <constant>NULL</constant>, each string is assumed to be null
        terminated. If <parameter>length</parameter> is a value other
        than <constant>NULL</constant>, it points to an array containing
        a string length for each of the corresponding elements of
        <parameter>string</parameter>. Each element in the
        <parameter>length</parameter> array may contain the length of
        the corresponding string (the null character is not counted as
        part of the string length) or a value less than 0 to indicate
        that the string is null terminated. The source code strings are
        not scanned or parsed at this time; they are simply copied into
        the specified shader object.</para>

    <refsect1 xml:id="notes"><title>Notes</title>
        <para>OpenGL copies the shader source code strings when
        <function>glShaderSource</function> is called, so an application
        may free its copy of the source code strings immediately after
        the function returns.</para>
