<para>
<function>glGetObjectLabel</function> retrieves the label of the object identified by
<parameter>name</parameter> within the namespace given by <parameter>identifier</parameter>.
<parameter>identifier</parameter> must be one of <constant>GL_BUFFER</constant>, <constant>GL_SHADER</constant>,
<constant>GL_PROGRAM</constant>, <constant>GL_VERTEX_ARRAY</constant>, <constant>GL_QUERY</constant>,
<constant>GL_PROGRAM_PIPELINE</constant>, <constant>GL_TRANSFORM_FEEDBACK</constant>, <constant>GL_SAMPLER</constant>,
<constant>GL_TEXTURE</constant>, <constant>GL_RENDERBUFFER</constant>, <constant>GL_FRAMEBUFFER</constant>,
to indicate the namespace containing the names of buffers, shaders, programs, vertex array objects, query objects,
program pipelines, transform feedback objects, samplers, textures, renderbuffers and frame
buffers, respectively.
</para>
<para>
<parameter>label</parameter> is the address of a string that will be used to store the object label.
<parameter>bufSize</parameter> specifies the number of characters in the array identified by <parameter>label</parameter>.
<parameter>length</parameter> contains the address of a variable which will receive the the number of characters in the object label.
If <parameter>length</parameter> is NULL, then it is ignored and no data is written. Likewise, if <parameter>label</parameter>
is NULL, or if <parameter>bufSize</parameter> is zero then no data is written to <parameter>label</parameter>.
</para>

<para>
<constant>GL_INVALID_ENUM</constant> is generated if <parameter>identifier</parameter>
is not one of the accepted object types.
</para>
<para>
<constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION</constant> is generated if <parameter>name</parameter>
is not the name of an existing object of the type specified by <parameter>identifier</parameter>.
</para>
<para>
<constant>GL_INVALID_VALUE</constant> is generated if <parameter>bufSize</parameter> is
zero.
</para>
<para>
If not NULL, <parameter>length</parameter> and <parameter>label</parameter> should be addresses
to which the client has write access, otherwise undefined behavior, including process termination
may occur.
