NAME
       glGenTextures - generate texture names


C SPECIFICATION
       void glGenTextures( GLsizei n,
			   GLuint *textures )


PARAMETERS
       n	 Specifies the number of texture names to be generated.

       textures	 Specifies  an array in which the generated texture names are
		 stored.

DESCRIPTION
       glGenTextures returns n texture names in textures.  There is no	guar-
       antee that the names form a contiguous set of integers; however, it is
       guaranteed that none of the returned  names  was	 in  use  immediately
       before the call to glGenTextures.

       The  generated textures have no dimensionality; they assume the dimen-
       sionality of the texture target to which they  are  first  bound	 (see
       glBindTexture).

       Texture	names returned by a call to glGenTextures are not returned by
       subsequent calls, unless they are first deleted with glDeleteTextures.

NOTES
       glGenTextures is available only if the GL version is 1.1 or greater.

ERRORS
       GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if n is negative.

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