<para>
<function>glGetDebugMessageLog</function> retrieves messages from the debug message log. A maximum of
<parameter>count</parameter> messages are retrieved from the log. If <parameter>sources</parameter>
is not NULL then the source of each message is written into up to <parameter>count</parameter> elements
of the array. If <parameter>types</parameter>
is not NULL then the type of each message is written into up to <parameter>count</parameter> elements
of the array. If <parameter>id</parameter>
is not NULL then the identifier of each message is written into up to <parameter>count</parameter> elements
of the array. If <parameter>severities</parameter>
is not NULL then the severity of each message is written into up to <parameter>count</parameter> elements
of the array. If <parameter>lengths</parameter>
is not NULL then the length of each message is written into up to <parameter>count</parameter> elements
of the array.
</para>
<para>
<parameter>messageLog</parameter> specifies the address of a character array into which the debug messages
will be written. Each message will be concatenated onto the array starting at the first element of <parameter>messageLog</parameter>.
<parameter>bufSize</parameter> specifies the size of the array <parameter>messageLog</parameter>. If a message will not
fit into the remaining space in <parameter>messageLog</parameter> then the function terminates and returns the number
of messages written so far, which may be zero.
</para>
<para>
If <function>glGetDebugMessageLog</function> returns zero then no messages are present in the debug log, or there
was not enough space in <parameter>messageLog</parameter> to retrieve the first message in the queue. If <parameter>messageLog</parameter>
is NULL then no messages are written and the value of <parameter>bufSize</parameter> is ignored.
</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1 id="notes"><title>Notes</title>
<para>
Although debug messages may be enabled in a non-debug context, the quantity and detail of such messages may be substantially
inferior to those in a debug context. In particular, a valid implementation of the debug message queue in a non-debug context
may produce no messages at all.
