NAME
glDeleteShader - Deletes a shader object
C SPECIFICATION
void glDeleteShader(GLuint shader);
PARAMETERS
shader
Specifies the shader object to be deleted.
DESCRIPTION
glDeleteShader frees the memory and invalidates the name associated with the shader object specified by shader. This command effectively
undoes the effects of a call to glCreateShader().
If a shader object to be deleted is attached to a program object, it will be flagged for deletion, but it will not be deleted until it is
no longer attached to any program object, for any rendering context (i.e., it must be detached from wherever it was attached before it will
be deleted). A value of 0 for shader will be silently ignored.
To determine whether an object has been flagged for deletion, call glGetShader() with arguments shader and GL_DELETE_STATUS.
ERRORS
GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if shader is not a value generated by OpenGL.
ASSOCIATED GETS
glGetAttachedShaders() with the program object to be queried
glGetShader() with arguments shader and GL_DELETE_STATUS
glIsShader()
