get histogram parameters

C Specification

void glGetHistogramParameterfv( GLenum target,

	GLenum pname,
	GLfloat *params )

void glGetHistogramParameteriv( GLenum target,

	GLenum pname,
	GLint *params )

Parameters

target

Must be one of GL_HISTOGRAM or GL_PROXY_HISTOGRAM.

pname

The name of the parameter to be retrieved. Must be one of GL_HISTOGRAM_WIDTH, GL_HISTOGRAM_FORMAT, GL_HISTOGRAM_RED_SIZE, GL_HISTOGRAM_GREEN_SIZE, GL_HISTOGRAM_BLUE_SIZE, GL_HISTOGRAM_ALPHA_SIZE, GL_HISTOGRAM_LUMINANCE_SIZE, or GL_HISTOGRAM_SINK.

params

Pointer to storage for the returned values.

Description

glGetHistogramParameter is used to query parameter values for the current histogram or for a proxy.  The histogram state information may be queried by calling glGetHistogramParameter with a target of GL_HISTOGRAM (to obtain information for the current histogram table) or GL_PROXY_HISTOGRAM (to obtain information from the most recent proxy request) and one of the following values for the pname argument:

ParameterDescription
GL_HISTOGRAM_WIDTHHistogram table width
GL_HISTOGRAM_FORMATInternal
GL_HISTOGRAM_RED_SIZERed component counter size, in bits
GL_HISTOGRAM_GREEN_SIZEGreen component counter size, in bits
ParameterDescription
GL_HISTOGRAM_BLUE_SIZEBlue component counter size, in bits
GL_HISTOGRAM_ALPHA_SIZEAlpha component counter size, in bits
GL_HISTOGRAM_LUMINANCE_SIZELuminance component counter size, in bits
GL_HISTOGRAM_SINKValue of the sink parameter

Notes

glGetHistogramParameter is present only if GL_ARB_imaging is returned when glGetString is called with an argument of GL_EXTENSIONS.

Errors

GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if target is not one of the allowable values.

GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if pname is not one of the allowable values.

GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glGetHistogramParameter is executed between the execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd.
