.TH gl_getcontext 3 "2 Aug 1997" "Svgalib (>= 1.2.11)" "Svgalib User Manual"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
gl_getcontext, currentcontext \- get the current graphics contents.
|
|
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B #include <vgagl.h>
|
|
|
|
.BI "void gl_getcontext(GraphicsContext *" gc );
|
|
|
|
.BI "extern GraphicsContext " currentcontext ;
|
|
/* this is already in vgagl.h */
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
Save the current context in the structure variable
|
|
.IR gc .
|
|
|
|
You can also get the current context from the global
|
|
variable
|
|
.IR currentcontext ;
|
|
|
|
However, simply access single elements in this structure
|
|
with the macros given in
|
|
.BR vgagl (7)
|
|
but do not copy
|
|
.I currentcontext
|
|
in another structure. This is because the size of the structure
|
|
might change and your program does not know it when it will be
|
|
linked dynamically to future svgalib versions.
|
|
|
|
Instead use
|
|
.BR gl_allocatecontext (3)
|
|
to allocate such a structure, fill it with
|
|
.B gl_getcontext
|
|
and release it with
|
|
.BR free (3)
|
|
after usage.
