glDebugMessageControl — control the reporting of debug messages in a debug context
void glDebugMessageControl(
|
GLenum source, |
GLenum type, | |
GLenum severity, | |
GLsizei count, | |
const GLuint *ids, | |
GLboolean enabled) ; |
source
The source of debug messages to enable or disable.
type
The type of debug messages to enable or disable.
severity
The severity of debug messages to enable or disable.
count
The length of the array ids
.
ids
The address of an array of unsigned integers contianing the ids of the messages to enable or disable.
enabled
A Boolean flag determining whether the selected messages should be enabled or disabled.
glDebugMessageControl
controls the reporting of debug messages generated by a debug
context. The parameters source
, type
and severity
form a filter to select messages from the pool of potential messages generated by the GL.
source
may be GL_DEBUG_SOURCE_API
, GL_DEBUG_SOURCE_WINDOW_SYSTEM_
,
GL_DEBUG_SOURCE_SHADER_COMPILER
, GL_DEBUG_SOURCE_THIRD_PARTY
,
GL_DEBUG_SOURCE_APPLICATION
, GL_DEBUG_SOURCE_OTHER
to select messages generated by
usage of the GL API, the window system, the shader compiler, third party tools or libraries, explicitly by the application
or by some other source, respectively. It may also take the value GL_DONT_CARE
. If source
is not GL_DONT_CARE
then only messages whose source matches source
will be referenced.
type
may be one of GL_DEBUG_TYPE_ERROR
, GL_DEBUG_TYPE_DEPRECATED_BEHAVIOR
,
GL_DEBUG_TYPE_UNDEFINED_BEHAVIOR
, GL_DEBUG_TYPE_PORTABILITY
,
GL_DEBUG_TYPE_PERFORMANCE
, GL_DEBUG_TYPE_MARKER
, GL_DEBUG_TYPE_PUSH_GROUP
,
GL_DEBUG_TYPE_POP_GROUP
, or GL_DEBUG_TYPE_OTHER
to indicate the type of messages describing
GL errors, attempted use of deprecated features, triggering of undefined behavior, portability issues, performance notifications, markers,
group push and pop events, and other
types of messages, respectively. It may also take the value GL_DONT_CARE
. If type
is not GL_DONT_CARE
then only messages whose type matches type
will be referenced.
severity
may be one of GL_DEBUG_SEVERITY_LOW
, GL_DEBUG_SEVERITY_MEDIUM
,
or GL_DEBUG_SEVERITY_HIGH
to select messages of low, medium or high severity messages or to
GL_DEBUG_SEVERITY_NOTIFICATION
for notifications. It may also take the
value GL_DONT_CARE
. If severity
is not GL_DONT_CARE
then only
messages whose severity matches severity
will be referenced.
ids
contains a list of count
message identifiers to select specific messages from the pool
of available messages. If count
is zero then the value of ids
is ignored. Otherwise,
only messages appearing in this list are selected. In this case, source
and type
may not be GL_DONT_CARE
and severity
must be GL_DONT_CARE
.
If enabled
is GL_TRUE
then messages that match the filter formed by
source
, type
, severity
and ids
are enabled. Otherwise, those messages are disabled.
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.
GL_DEBUG_TYPE_MARKER
, GL_DEBUG_TYPE_PUSH_GROUP
, GL_DEBUG_TYPE_POP_GROUP
, and GL_DEBUG_SEVERITY_NOTIFICATION
are available only if the GL version is 4.3 or higher.
GL_INVALID_VALUE
is generated if count
is negative.
GL_INVALID_ENUM
is generated if any of source
, type
or severity
is not one of the accepted interface types.
GL_INVALID_OPERATION
is generated if count
is non-zero
and either source
or type
is GL_DONT_CARE
or if severity
is not GL_DONT_CARE
.
