gluTessBeginContour, gluTessEndContour

  • Article

The gluTessBeginContour and gluTessEndContour functions delimit a contour description.

void gluTessBeginContour(
  GLUtesselator *tess);void gluTessEndContour(  GLUtesselator *tess);

Parameters

  • tess
    The tessellation object (created with gluNewTess).

Remarks

The gluTessBeginContour and gluTessEndContour functions delimit the definition of a polygon contour. Within each gluTessBeginContour/gluTessEndContour pair, there can be zero or more calls to gluTessVertex. The vertexes specify a closed contour (the last vertex of each contour is automatically linked to the first). You can call gluTessBeginContour only between gluTessBeginPolygon and gluTessEndPolygon.

Requirements

**  Windows NT/2000:** Requires Windows NT 3.5 or later.
**  Windows 95/98:** Requires Windows 95 or later. Available as a redistributable for Windows 95.
**  Header:** Declared in Glu.h.
**  Library:** Use Glu32.lib.
