NAME
       glXGetClientString - return a string describing the client


C SPECIFICATION
       const char * glXGetClientString( Display *dpy,
					int name )

       delim $$

PARAMETERS
       dpy   Specifies the connection to the X server.

       name  Specifies which string is returned.  One of GLX_VENDOR, GLX_VER-
	     SION, or GLX_EXTENSIONS.

DESCRIPTION
       glXGetClientString returns a string  describing	some  aspect  of  the
       client  library. The possible values for name are GLX_VENDOR, GLX_VER-
       SION, and GLX_EXTENSIONS. If name is not set to one of  these  values,
       glXGetClientString  returns NULL.  The format and contents of the ven-
       dor string is implementation dependent.

       The extensions string is null-terminated and  contains  a  space-sepa-
       rated  list  of	 extension  names. (The extension names never contain
       spaces.)	 If there are no extensions to GLX, then the empty string  is
       returned.

       The version string is laid out as follows:

       <major_version.minor_version><space><vendor-specific info>

       Both  the  major and minor portions of the version number are of arbi-
       trary length.  The vendor-specific information is optional.   However,
       if it is present, the format and contents are implementation specific.

NOTES
       glXGetClientString is available only if the  GLX	 version  is  1.1  or
       greater.

       If  the GLX version is 1.1 or 1.0, the GL version must be 1.0.  If the
       GLX version is 1.2, then the GL version must be 1.1.

       glXGetClientString only returns information about GLX extensions	 sup-
       ported by the client.  Call glGetString to get a list of GL extensions
       supported by the server.
