<para>
<function>glGetActiveAtomicCounterBufferiv</function> retrieves information about the set of active
atomic counter buffers for a program object. <parameter>program</parameter> is the name of a program
object for which the command <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glLinkProgram</refentrytitle></citerefentry>
has been issued in the past. It is not necessary for <parameter>program</parameter> to have been linked
successfully. The link may have failed because the number of active atomic counters exceeded the limits.
</para>
<para>
<parameter>bufferIndex</parameter> specifies the index of an active atomic counter buffer and must be in
the range zero to the value of <constant>GL_ACTIVE_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFERS</constant> minus one. The value
of <constant>GL_ACTIVE_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFERS</constant> for <parameter>program</parameter> indicates the
number of active atomic counter buffer and can be queried with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>glGetProgram</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.
</para>
<para>
If no error occurs, the parameter(s) specified by <parameter>pname</parameter> are returned in <parameter>params</parameter>.
If an error is generated, the contents of <parameter>params</parameter> are not modified.
</para>
<para>
If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFER_BINDING</constant>, then the index of the
counter buffer binding point associated with the active atomic counter buffer <parameter>bufferIndex</parameter>
for <parameter>program</parameter> is returned.
</para>
<para>
If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFER_DATA_SIZE</constant>, then the implementation-dependent
minimum total buffer object size, in baseic machine units, required to hold all active atomic counters in the
atomic counter binding point identified by <parameter>bufferIndex</parameter> is returned.
</para>
<para>
If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFER_ACTIVE_ATOMIC_COUNTERS</constant>, then the number of active
atomic counters for the atomic counter buffer identified by <parameter>bufferIndex</parameter> is returned.
</para>
<para>
If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFER_ACTIVE_ATOMIC_COUNTER_INDICES</constant>,
then a list of the active atomic counter indices for the atomic counter buffer identified by <parameter>bufferIndex</parameter>
is returned. The number of elements that will be written into <parameter>params</parameter> is the value of
<constant>GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFER_ACTIVE_ATOMIC_COUNTERS</constant> for <parameter>bufferIndex</parameter>.
</para>
<para>
If <parameter>pname</parameter> is <constant>GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFER_REFERENCED_BY_VERTEX_SHADER</constant>,
<constant>GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFER_REFERENCED_BY_TESS_CONTROL_SHADER</constant>,
<constant>GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFER_REFERENCED_BY_TESS_EVALUATION_SHADER</constant>,
<constant>GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFER_REFERENCED_BY_GEOMETRY_SHADER</constant>,
<constant>GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFER_REFERENCED_BY_FRAGMENT_SHADER</constant>,
<constant>GL_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFER_REFERENCED_BY_COMPUTE_SHADER</constant> then a boolean value indicating
whether the atomic counter buffer identified by <parameter>bufferIndex</parameter> is referenced by the vertex,
tessellation control, tessellation evaluation, geometry, fragment or compute processing stages of <parameter>program</parameter>,
respectively, is returned.
</para>

<function>glGetActiveAtomicCounterBufferiv</function> is available only if the
GL version is 4.2 or higher.

<constant>GL_INVALID_VALUE</constant> is generated if <parameter>program</parameter> is not the name of a program
object for which <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glLinkProgram</refentrytitle></citerefentry> has been called in the past.
</para>
<para>
<constant>GL_INVALID_VALUE</constant> is generated if <parameter>bufferIndex</parameter> is greater than or equal to
the value of <constant>GL_ACTIVE_ATOMIC_COUNTER_BUFFERS</constant> for <parameter>program</parameter>.

<constant>GL_INVALID_ENUM</constant> is generated if <parameter>pname</parameter> is not one of the accepted tokens.
