glXWaitX(3)

NAME

       glXWaitX - complete X execution prior to subsequent GL calls

C SPECIFICATION

       void glXWaitX( void )

       delim $$

DESCRIPTION

       X  rendering calls made prior to glXWaitX are guaranteed to be executed
       before GL rendering calls  made  after  glXWaitX.   Although  the  same
       result  can  be achieved using XSync, glXWaitX does not require a round
       trip to the server, and it is therefore more efficient in  cases  where
       client and server are on separate machines.

       glXWaitX is ignored if there is no current GLX context.

NOTES

       glXWaitX may or may not flush the GL stream.

ERRORS

       GLXBadCurrentWindow  is  generated  if the drawable associated with the
       current context of the calling thread is a window, and that  window  is
       no longer valid.
