1991-2006 Silicon Graphics, Inc. glXCreatePixmap 3G glXCreatePixmap create an off-screen rendering area C Specification GLXPixmap glXCreatePixmap Display * dpy GLXFBConfig config Pixmap pixmap const int * attrib_list Parameters dpy Specifies the connection to the X server. config Specifies a GLXFBConfig structure with the desired attributes for the window. pixmap Specifies the X pixmap to be used as the rendering area. attrib_list Currently unused. This must be set to NULL or be an empty list (i.e., one in which the first element is None). Description glXCreatePixmap creates an off-screen rendering area and returns its XID. Any GLX rendering context that was created with respect to config can be used to render into this window. Use glXMakeCurrent to associate the rendering area with a GLX rendering context. Notes glXCreatePixmap is available only if the GLX version is 1.3 or greater. If the GLX version is 1.1 or 1.0, the GL version must be 1.0. If the GLX version is 1.2, then the GL version must be 1.1. If the GLX version is 1.3, then the GL version must be 1.2. Errors BadMatch is generated if pixmap was not created with a visual that corresponds to config. BadMatch is generated if config does not support rendering to windows (e.g., GLX_DRAWABLE_TYPE does not contain GLX_WINDOW_BIT). BadWindow is generated if pixmap is not a valid window XID. BadAlloc is generated if there is already a GLXFBConfig associated with pixmap. BadAlloc is generated if the X server cannot allocate a new GLX window. GLXBadFBConfig is generated if config is not a valid GLXFBConfig.
