GLUGETSTRING(3G)		 OpenGL Manual		      GLUGETSTRING(3G)

NAME
       gluGetString - return a string describing the GLU version or GLU
       extensions

C SPECIFICATION
       const GLubyte * gluGetString(GLenum name);

PARAMETERS
       name
	   Specifies a symbolic constant, one of GLU_VERSION, or
	   GLU_EXTENSIONS.

DESCRIPTION
       gluGetString returns a pointer to a static string describing the GLU
       version or the GLU extensions that are supported.

       The version number is one of the following forms:

       major_number.minor_number major_number.minor_number.release_number.

       The version string is of the following form:

       version number<space>vendor-specific information

       Vendor-specific information is optional. Its format and contents depend
       on the implementation.

       The standard GLU contains a basic set of features and capabilities. If
       a company or group of companies wish to support other features, these
       may be included as extensions to the GLU. If name is GLU_EXTENSIONS,
       then gluGetString returns a space-separated list of names of supported
       GLU extensions. (Extension names never contain spaces.)

       All strings are null-terminated.

NOTES
       gluGetString only returns information about GLU extensions. Call
       glGetString to get a list of GL extensions.

       gluGetString is an initialization routine. Calling it after a
       glNewList() results in undefined behavior.

ERRORS
       NULL is returned if name is not GLU_VERSION or GLU_EXTENSIONS.
