glXIsDirect

indicate whether direct rendering is enabled

Signature

glXIsDirect( Display * ( dpy ) , GLXContext ( ctx ) )-> Bool
glXIsDirect( dpy , ctx ) -> <class 'ctypes.c_uint'>

Parameters

VariablesDescription
dpy
Specifies the connection to the X server.
ctx
Specifies the GLX context that is being queried.

Description

glXIsDirect returns True if ctx is a direct rendering context, False otherwise. Direct rendering contexts pass rendering commands directly from the calling process's address space to the rendering system, bypassing the X server. Nondirect rendering contexts pass all rendering commands to the X server.

Errors

GLXBadContext is generated if ctx is not a valid GLX context.
