GLXContext ctx
Parameters
dpy
Specifies the connection to the X server.
ctx
Specifies the GLX context that is being queried.
Description
glXIsDirect returns True if ctx is a direct rendering context,
False otherwise.
Direct rendering contexts pass rendering commands directly from the calling
process's address space to the rendering system,
bypassing the X server.
Nondirect rendering contexts pass all rendering commands to the X server.
Errors
GLXBadContext is generated if ctx is not a valid GLX context.
