OpenGL 1.1 for AIX: Reference Manual

gluTessEndPolygon Subroutine

Purpose

Delimit a polygon description.

Library

C bindings library: libGL.a

C Syntax

void gluTessEndPolygon(
    GLUtesselator*	 tess)

Parameters

tess
Specifies the tessellation object (created with gluNewTess).

Description

The gluTessBeginPolygon and gluTessEndPolygon routines delimit the definition of a nonconvex polygon. Within each gluTessBeginPolygon/gluTessEndPolygon pair, there must be one or more calls to gluTessBeginContour/gluTessEndContour. Within each contour, there are zero or more calls to gluTessVertex. The vertices specify a closed contour (the last vertex of each contour is automatically linked to the first). See the gluTessVertex, gluTessBeginContour and gluTessEndContour reference pages for more details.

Once gluTessEndPolygon is called, the polygon is tessellated, and the resulting triangles are described through callbacks. See gluTessCallback for descriptions of the callback functions.
