NAME

       glutSolidTorus, glutWireTorus - render a solid or wireframe torus (doughnut) respectively.

SYNTAX

       void glutSolidTorus(GLdouble innerRadius,
			   GLdouble outerRadius,
			   GLint nsides, GLint rings);
       void glutWireTorus(GLdouble innerRadius,
			  GLdouble outerRadius,
			  GLint nsides, GLint rings);

ARGUMENTS

       innerRadius
		 Inner radius of the torus.

       outerRadius
		 Outer radius of the torus.

       nsides	 Number of sides for each radial section.

       rings	 Number of radial divisions for the torus.

DESCRIPTION

       glutSolidTorus  and  glutWireTorus  render  a  solid or wireframe torus (doughnut) respectively centered at the modeling coordinates origin
       whose axis is aligned with the Z axis.

NAME

       glutSolidTeapot, glutWireTeapot - render a solid or wireframe teapot respectively.

SYNTAX

       void glutSolidTeapot(GLdouble size);
       void glutWireTeapot(GLdouble size);

ARGUMENTS

       size	 Relative size of the teapot.

DESCRIPTION

       glutSolidTeapot	and  glutWireTeapot  render a solid or wireframe teapot respectively. Both surface normals and texture coordinates for the
       teapot are generated. The teapot is generated with OpenGL evaluators.

BUGS

       The teapot is greatly over-tesselated; it renders way too slow.

       OpenGL's default glFrontFace state assumes that front facing polygons (for the purpose of face culling) have  vertices  that  wind  counter
       clockwise  when	projected  into  window  space.   This	teapot	is rendered with its front facing polygon vertices winding clockwise.  For
       OpenGL's default back face culling to work, you should use:

	 glFrontFace(GL_CW);
	 glutSolidTeapot(size);
	 glFrontFace(GL_CCW);

       Both these bugs reflect issues in the original aux toolkit's teapot rendering routines (GLUT used the same teapot rendering routine).
