glIndexMask(3G)                OpenGL Reference                glIndexMask(3G)



NAME
     glIndexMask - control the writing of individual bits in the color index
     buffers


C SPECIFICATION
     void glIndexMask( GLuint mask )


PARAMETERS
     mask  Specifies a bit mask to enable and disable the writing of
           individual bits in the color index buffers.  Initially, the mask is
           all 1's.

DESCRIPTION
     glIndexMask controls the writing of individual bits in the color index
     buffers.  The least significant n bits of mask, where n is the number of
     bits in a color index buffer, specify a mask.  Where a 1 (one) appears in
     the mask, it's possible to write to the corresponding bit in the color
     index buffer (or buffers). Where a 0 (zero) appears, the corresponding
     bit is write-protected.

     This mask is used only in color index mode, and it affects only the
     buffers currently selected for writing (see glDrawBuffer).  Initially,
     all bits are enabled for writing.

ERRORS
     GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glIndexMask is executed between the
     execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd.

ASSOCIATED GETS
     glGet with argument GL_INDEX_WRITEMASK
