glGetActiveSubroutineUniformName
3G
glGetActiveSubroutineUniformName
query the name of an active shader subroutine uniform
C Specification
void glGetActiveSubroutineUniformName
GLuint program
GLenum shadertype
GLuint index
GLsizei bufsize
GLsizei *length
GLchar *name
Parameters
program
Specifies the name of the program containing the subroutine.
shadertype
Specifies the shader stage from which to query for the subroutine parameter. shadertype
must be one of GL_VERTEX_SHADER, GL_TESS_CONTROL_SHADER,
GL_TESS_EVALUATION_SHADER, GL_GEOMETRY_SHADER or
GL_FRAGMENT_SHADER.
index
Specifies the index of the shader subroutine uniform.
bufsize
Specifies the size of the buffer whose address is given in name.
length
Specifies the address of a variable into which is written the number of characters copied into name.
name
Specifies the address of a buffer that will receive the name of the specified shader subroutine uniform.
Description
glGetActiveSubroutineUniformName retrieves the name of an active shader subroutine uniform.
program contains the name of the program containing the uniform. shadertype
specifies the stage for which which the uniform location, given by index, is valid. index
must be between zero and the value of GL_ACTIVE_SUBROUTINE_UNIFORMS minus one for the
shader stage.
The uniform name is returned as a null-terminated string in name. The actual number of characters
written into name, excluding the null terminator is returned in length.
If length is NULL, no length is returned. The maximum number of characters
that may be written into name, including the null terminator, is specified by bufsize.
The length of the longest subroutine uniform name in program and shadertype is given
by the value of GL_ACTIVE_SUBROUTINE_UNIFORM_MAX_LENGTH, which can be queried with
glGetProgramStage.
Errors
GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if shadertype or pname
is not one of the accepted values.
GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if index is greater than or equal to
the value of GL_ACTIVE_SUBROUTINES.
GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if program is not the name of an
existing program object.
