        <para>
            <function>glDeleteBuffers</function> deletes <parameter>n</parameter> buffer objects named by the elements of the array <parameter>buffers</parameter>.
            After a buffer object is deleted, it has no contents,
            and its name is free for reuse (for example by <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glGenBuffers</refentrytitle></citerefentry>).
            If a buffer object that is currently bound is deleted, the binding reverts
            to 0 (the absence of any buffer object, which reverts to client memory usage).
        </para>
        <para>
            <function>glDeleteBuffers</function> silently ignores 0's and names that do not correspond to
            existing buffer objects.
