<refsect1 xml:id="description"><title>Description</title>
<para>
<function>glBindImageTexture</function> binds a single level of a texture to an image unit for the purpose of
reading and writing it from shaders. <parameter>unit</parameter> specifies the zero-based index of the image
unit to which to bind the texture level. <parameter>texture</parameter> specifies the name of an existing texture
object to bind to the image unit. If <parameter>texture</parameter> is zero, then any existing binding to
the image unit is broken. <parameter>level</parameter> specifies the level of the texture to bind to the image
unit.
</para>
<para>
If <parameter>texture</parameter> is the name of a one-, two-, or three-dimensional array texture, a cube map
or cube map array texture, or a two-dimensional multisample array texture, then it is possible to bind either
the entire array, or only a single layer of the array to the image unit. In such cases, if <parameter>layered</parameter>
is <constant>GL_TRUE</constant>, the entire array is attached to the image unit and <parameter>layer</parameter>
is ignored. However, if <parameter>layered</parameter> is <constant>GL_FALSE</constant> then <parameter>layer</parameter>
specifies the layer of the array to attach to the image unit.
</para>
<para>
<parameter>access</parameter> specifies the access types to be performed by shaders and may be set to
<constant>GL_READ_ONLY</constant>, <constant>GL_WRITE_ONLY</constant>, or <constant>GL_READ_WRITE</constant>
to indicate read-only, write-only or read-write access, respectively. Violation of the access type specified in <parameter>access</parameter>
(for example, if a shader writes to an image bound with <parameter>access</parameter> set to <constant>GL_READ_ONLY</constant>)
will lead to undefined results, possibly including program termination.
</para>
<para>
<parameter>format</parameter> specifies the format that is to be used when performing formatted stores into the
image from shaders. <parameter>format</parameter> must be compatible with the texture's internal format and must
be one of the formats listed in the following table.

When a texture is bound to an image unit, the <parameter>format</parameter> parameter for the image
unit need not exactly match the texture internal format as long as the formats are
considered compatible as defined in the OpenGL Specification. The matching criterion used
for a given texture may be determined by calling <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glGetTexParameter</refentrytitle></citerefentry>
with <parameter>value</parameter>
set to <constant>GL_IMAGE_FORMAT_COMPATIBILITY_TYPE</constant>, with return values of <constant>GL_IMAGE_FORMAT_COMPATIBILITY_BY_SIZE</constant>
and <constant>GL_IMAGE_FORMAT_COMPATIBILITY_BY_CLASS</constant>, specifying matches by size and class, respectively.
