glGenTextures
3G
glGenTextures
generate texture names
C Specification
void glGenTextures
GLsizei n
GLuint * textures
Parameters
n
Specifies the number of texture names to be generated.
textures
Specifies an array in which the generated texture names are stored.
Description
glGenTextures returns n texture names in textures.
There is no guarantee that the names form a contiguous set of integers;
however, it is guaranteed that none of the returned names was in use
immediately before the call to glGenTextures.
The generated textures have no dimensionality; they assume the dimensionality
of the texture target to which they are first bound
(see glBindTexture).
Texture names returned by a call to glGenTextures are not returned by
subsequent calls, unless they are first deleted with
glDeleteTextures.
Errors
GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if n is negative.
