C SPECIFICATION
void glGetMapdv( GLenum target,
GLenum query,
GLdouble *v )
void glGetMapfv( GLenum target,
GLenum query,
GLfloat *v )
void glGetMapiv( GLenum target,
GLenum query,
GLint *v )
PARAMETERS
target Specifies the symbolic name of a map. Accepted values are
GL_MAP1_COLOR_4, GL_MAP1_INDEX, GL_MAP1_NORMAL, GL_MAP1_TEX‐
TURE_COORD_1, GL_MAP1_TEXTURE_COORD_2, GL_MAP1_TEXTURE_COORD_3,
GL_MAP1_TEXTURE_COORD_4, GL_MAP1_VERTEX_3, GL_MAP1_VERTEX_4,
GL_MAP2_COLOR_4, GL_MAP2_INDEX, GL_MAP2_NORMAL, GL_MAP2_TEX‐
TURE_COORD_1, GL_MAP2_TEXTURE_COORD_2, GL_MAP2_TEXTURE_COORD_3,
GL_MAP2_TEXTURE_COORD_4, GL_MAP2_VERTEX_3, and GL_MAP2_VER‐
TEX_4.
query Specifies which parameter to return. Symbolic names GL_COEFF,
GL_ORDER, and GL_DOMAIN are accepted.
v Returns the requested data.
DESCRIPTION
glMap1 and glMap2 define evaluators. glGetMap returns evaluator param‐
eters. target chooses a map, query selects a specific parameter, and v
points to storage where the values will be returned.
The acceptable values for the target parameter are described in the
glMap1 and glMap2 reference pages.
query can assume the following values:
GL_COEFF v returns the control points for the evaluator function.
One-dimensional evaluators return order control points,
and two-dimensional evaluators return uorder×vorder con‐
trol points. Each control point consists of one, two,
three, or four integer, single-precision floating-point,
or double-precision floating-point values, depending on
the type of the evaluator. The GL returns two-dimen‐
sional control points in row-major order, incrementing
the uorder index quickly and the vorder index after each
row. Integer values, when requested, are computed by
rounding the internal floating-point values to the near‐
est integer values.
GL_ORDER v returns the order of the evaluator function. One-
dimensional evaluators return a single value, order. The
initial value is 1. Two-dimensional evaluators return
two values, uorder and vorder. The initial value is 1,1.
GL_DOMAIN v returns the linear u and v mapping parameters. One-
dimensional evaluators return two values, u1 and u2, as
specified by glMap1. Two-dimensional evaluators return
four values (u1, u2, v1, and v2) as specified by glMap2.
Integer values, when requested, are computed by rounding
the internal floating-point values to the nearest inte‐
ger values.
NOTES
If an error is generated, no change is made to the contents of v.
ERRORS
GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if either target or query is not an
accepted value.
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glGetMap is executed between the
execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd.
