glLoadName
load a name onto the name stack
C Specification
void glLoadName
GLuint name
Parameters
name
Specifies a name that will replace the top value on the name stack.
Description
The name stack is used during selection mode to allow sets of rendering
commands to be uniquely identified.
It consists of an ordered set of unsigned integers and is initially empty.
glLoadName causes name to replace the value on the top of the name stack.
The name stack is always empty while the render mode is not GL_SELECT.
Calls to glLoadName while the render mode is not GL_SELECT are ignored.
Errors
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glLoadName is called while the
name stack is empty.
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glLoadName is executed between
the execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd.
