<para>

The names of the vertex or geometry shader outputs to be recorded in transform feedback mode
|
|
|
|
are specified using <function>glTransformFeedbackVaryings</function>. When a geometry shader
|
|
|
|
is active, transform feedback records the values of selected geometry shader output variables
|
|
|
|
from the emitted vertices. Otherwise, the values of the selected vertex shader outputs are
|
|
|
|
recorded.

|

|
is called, <parameter>program</parameter> is linked so that the values of the specified varying variables
|
|

for the vertices of each primitive generated by the GL are written to a single buffer

object if <parameter>bufferMode</parameter> is <constant>GL_INTERLEAVED_ATTRIBS</constant> or multiple
