GLUNIFORMBLOCKBINDIN(3G)					    OpenGL 3.3						  GLUNIFORMBLOCKBINDIN(3G)

NAME
glUniformBlockBinding - assign a binding point to an active uniform block C SPECIFICATION
void glUniformBlockBinding(GLuint program, GLuint uniformBlockIndex, GLuint uniformBlockBinding); PARAMETERS
program The name of a program object containing the active uniform block whose binding to assign. uniformBlockIndex The index of the active uniform block within program whose binding to assign. uniformBlockBinding Specifies the binding point to which to bind the uniform block with index uniformBlockIndex within program. DESCRIPTION
Binding points for active uniform blocks are assigned using glUniformBlockBinding. Each of a program's active uniform blocks has a corresponding uniform buffer binding point. program is the name of a program object for which the command glLinkProgram() has been issued in the past. If successful, glUniformBlockBinding specifies that program will use the data store of the buffer object bound to the binding point uniformBlockBinding to extract the values of the uniforms in the uniform block identified by uniformBlockIndex. When a program object is linked or re-linked, the uniform buffer object binding point assigned to each of its active uniform blocks is reset to zero. ERRORS
GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if uniformBlockIndex is not an active uniform block index of program. GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if uniformBlockBinding is greater than or equal to the value of GL_MAX_UNIFORM_BUFFER_BINDINGS. GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated program is not the name of a program object generated by the GL. NOTES
glUniformBlockBinding is available only if the GL version is 3.1 or greater. ASSOCIATED GETS

NAME
glGetActiveUniformBlockName - retrieve the name of an active uniform block C SPECIFICATION
void glGetActiveUniformBlockName(GLuint program, GLuint uniformBlockIndex, GLsizei bufSize, GLsizei *length, GLchar *uniformBlockName); PARAMETERS
program Specifies the name of a program containing the uniform block. uniformBlockIndex Specifies the index of the uniform block within program. bufSize Specifies the size of the buffer addressed by uniformBlockName. length Specifies the address of a variable to receive the number of characters that were written to uniformBlockName. uniformBlockName Specifies the address an array of characters to receive the name of the uniform block at uniformBlockIndex. DESCRIPTION
glGetActiveUniformBlockName retrieves the name of the active uniform block at uniformBlockIndex within program. program must be the name of a program object for which the command glLinkProgram() must have been called in the past, although it is not required that glLinkProgram() must have succeeded. The link could have failed because the number of active uniforms exceeded the limit. uniformBlockIndex is an active uniform block index of program, and must be less than the value of GL_ACTIVE_UNIFORM_BLOCKS. Upon success, the name of the uniform block identified by unifomBlockIndex is returned into uniformBlockName. The name is nul-terminated. The actual number of characters written into uniformBlockName, excluding the nul terminator, is returned in length. If length is NULL, no length is returned. bufSize contains the maximum number of characters (including the nul terminator) that will be written into uniformBlockName. If an error occurs, nothing will be written to uniformBlockName or length. ERRORS
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if program is not the name of a program object for which glLinkProgram() has been called in the past. GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if uniformBlockIndex is greater than or equal to the value of GL_ACTIVE_UNIFORM_BLOCKS or is not the index of an active uniform block in program. NOTES
glGetActiveUniformBlockName is available only if the GL version is 3.1 or greater. SEE ALSO
