NAME

       glInterleavedArrays - simultaneously specify and enable several interleaved arrays

C SPECIFICATION

       void glInterleavedArrays( GLenum format,
				 GLsizei stride,
				 const GLvoid *pointer )

PARAMETERS

       format	Specifies  the	type  of  array  to  enable.  Symbolic constants GL_V2F, GL_V3F, GL_C4UB_V2F, GL_C4UB_V3F, GL_C3F_V3F, GL_N3F_V3F,
		GL_C4F_N3F_V3F,   GL_T2F_V3F,	GL_T4F_V4F,   GL_T2F_C4UB_V3F,	  GL_T2F_C3F_V3F,    GL_T2F_N3F_V3F,	GL_T2F_C4F_N3F_V3F,    and
		GL_T4F_C4F_N3F_V4F are accepted.

       stride	Specifies the offset in bytes between each aggregate array element.

DESCRIPTION

       glInterleavedArrays  lets  you  specify	and enable individual color, normal, texture and vertex arrays whose elements are part of a larger
       aggregate array element.  For some implementations, this is more efficient than specifying the arrays separately.

       If stride is 0, the aggregate elements are stored consecutively.  Otherwise, stride bytes occur between	the  beginning	of  one  aggregate
       array element and the beginning of the next aggregate array element.

       format  serves  as a ``key'' describing the extraction of individual arrays from the aggregate array.  If format contains a T, then texture
       coordinates are extracted from the interleaved array.  If C is present, color values are extracted. If N is present, normal coordinates are
       extracted.  Vertex coordinates are always extracted.

       The  digits  2, 3, and 4 denote how many values are extracted.  F indicates that values are extracted as floating-point values.	Colors may
       also be extracted as 4 unsigned bytes if 4UB follows the C.  If a color is extracted as 4 unsigned bytes, the vertex  array  element  which
       follows is located at the first possible floating-point aligned address.

NOTES

       glInterleavedArrays is available only if the GL version is 1.1 or greater.

       If glInterleavedArrays is called while compiling a display list, it is not compiled into the list, and it is executed immediately.

       Execution of glInterleavedArrays is not allowed between the execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution of glEnd, but an error may
       or may not be generated. If no error is generated, the operation is undefined.

       glInterleavedArrays is typically implemented on the client side.

       Vertex array  parameters  are  client-side  state  and  are  therefore  not  saved  or  restored  by  glPushAttrib  and	glPopAttrib.   Use
       glPushClientAttrib and glPopClientAttrib instead.

       When  the  GL_ARB_multitexture  extension is supported, glInterleavedArrays only updates the texture coordinate array for the active active
       texture unit. The texture coordinate state for other client texture units is not update, regardless if they are enabled or not.

ERRORS

       GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if format is not an accepted value.

       GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if stride is negative.
