NAME
glEdgeFlag, glEdgeFlagv - flag edges as either boundary or nonboundary
C SPECIFICATION
void glEdgeFlag( GLboolean flag )
PARAMETERS
flag Specifies the current edge flag value, either true or false.
C SPECIFICATION
void glEdgeFlagv( const GLboolean *flag )
PARAMETERS
flag Specifies a pointer to an array that contains a single Boolean
element, which replaces the current edge flag value.
DESCRIPTION
Each vertex of a polygon, separate triangle, or separate quadrilateral
specified between a glBegin/glEnd pair is marked as the start of either a
boundary or nonboundary edge. If the current edge flag is true when the
vertex is specified, the vertex is marked as the start of a boundary
edge. Otherwise, the vertex is marked as the start of a nonboundary
edge. glEdgeFlag sets the edge flag to true if flag is nonzero, false
otherwise.
The vertices of connected triangles and connected quadrilaterals are
always marked as boundary, regardless of the value of the edge flag.
Boundary and nonboundary edge flags on vertices are significant only if
GL_POLYGON_MODE is set to GL_POINT or GL_LINE. See glPolygonMode.
Initially, the edge flag bit is true.
NOTES
The current edge flag can be updated at any time. In particular,
glEdgeFlag can be called between a call to glBegin and the corresponding
call to glEnd.
