gluTessBeginContour function

The gluTessBeginContour and gluTessEndContour functions delimit a contour description.

Syntax

void WINAPI gluTessBeginContour(
   GLUtesselator *tess
);

Parameters

tess

The tessellation object (created with gluNewTess).

Return value

This function does not return a value.

Remarks

The gluTessBeginContour and gluTessEndPolygon functions delimit the definition of a polygon contour. Within each gluTessBeginContour/gluTessEndPolygon pair, there can be zero or more calls to gluTessVertex. The vertexes specify a closed contour (the last vertex of each contour is automatically linked to the first). You can call gluTessBeginContour only between gluTessBeginPolygon and gluTessEndPolygon.
