.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBglShaderBinary\fR
loads pre\-compiled shader binary code into the
\fIcount\fR
shader objects whose handles are given in
\fIshaders\fR\&.
\fIbinary\fR
points to
\fIlength\fR
bytes of binary shader code stored in client memory\&.
\fIbinaryFormat\fR
specifies the format of the pre\-compiled code\&.
.PP
The binary image contained in
\fIbinary\fR
will be decoded according to the extension specification defining the specified
\fIbinaryFormat\fR
token\&. OpenGL does not define any specific binary formats, but it does provide a mechanism to obtain token vaues for such formats provided by such extensions\&.
.PP
Depending on the types of the shader objects in
\fIshaders\fR,
\fBglShaderBinary\fR
will individually load binary vertex or fragment shaders, or load an executable binary that contains an optimized pair of vertex and fragment shaders stored in the same binary\&.
.SH "ERRORS"
.PP
\fBGL_INVALID_OPERATION\fR
is generated if more than one of the handles in
\fIshaders\fR
refers to the same shader object\&.
.PP
\fBGL_INVALID_ENUM\fR
is generated if
\fIbinaryFormat\fR
is not an accepted value\&.
.PP
\fBGL_INVALID_VALUE\fR
is generated if the data pointed to by
\fIbinary\fR
does not match the format specified by
\fIbinaryFormat\fR\&.
.SH "ASSOCIATED GETS"
.PP
\fBglGet\fR()
with parameter
\fBGL_NUM_SHADER_BINARY_FORMATS\fR\&.
.PP
\fBglGet\fR()
with parameter
\fBGL_SHADER_BINARY_FORMATS\fR\&.
