waffle_get_proc_address (3)

#include <waffle.h>

void* waffle_get_proc_address(const char *name);

waffle_get_proc_address()

On GLX, this redirects to glXGetProcAddress(3). On EGL, this redirects to eglGetProcAddress(3). On CGL, this function returns NULL because there exists no CGLGetProcAdress().

Some aspects of this function's behavior is platform-specific and non-intuitive. For example,

If the queried function is not available, waffle_get_proc_address() may return a non-null pointer.

If the queried function is statically exposed by the OpenGL library of a given API, then waffle_get_proc_address() may return a NULL.

For details on this function's behavior, see the specification for the relevant platform: the \m[blue]GLX 1.4 Specification\m[]\s-2\u[1]\d\s+2 or the \m[blue]EGL 1.4 Specification\m[]\s-2\u[2]\d\s+2.

See waffle_error(3) for the complete list of waffle's error codes.
