NAME
       gluTessBeginPolygon - delimit a polygon description

C SPECIFICATION
       void gluTessBeginPolygon( GLUtesselator* tess,
				 GLvoid* data )

PARAMETERS
       tess  Specifies the tessellation object (created with gluNewTess).

       data  Specifies a pointer to user polygon data.

DESCRIPTION
       gluTessBeginPolygon  and  gluTessEndPolygon  delimit  the  definition  of  a  convex,  concave  or  self-intersecting  polygon. Within each
       gluTessBeginPolygon/gluTessEndPolygon pair, there must be one or more calls to gluTessBeginContour/gluTessEndContour.  Within each contour,
       there  are  zero  or  more  calls to gluTessVertex. The vertices specify a closed contour (the last vertex of each contour is automatically
       linked to the first). See the gluTessVertex, gluTessBeginContour, and gluTessEndContour reference pages for more details.

       data is a pointer to a user-defined data structure. If the appropriate callback(s) are specified (see gluTessCallback), then  this  pointer
       is returned to the callback function(s). Thus, it is a convenient way to store per-polygon information.

       Once  gluTessEndPolygon	is  called,  the  polygon  is  tessellated,  and  the  resulting  triangles  are described through callbacks.  See
       gluTessCallback for descriptions of the callback functions.

EXAMPLE
       A quadrilateral with a triangular hole in it can be described as follows:

       gluTessBeginPolygon(tobj, NULL);
	gluTessBeginContour(tobj);
	  gluTessVertex(tobj, v1, v1);
	  gluTessVertex(tobj, v2, v2);
	  gluTessVertex(tobj, v3, v3);
	  gluTessVertex(tobj, v4, v4);
	gluTessEndContour(tobj);
	gluTessBeginContour(tobj);
	  gluTessVertex(tobj, v5, v5);
	  gluTessVertex(tobj, v6, v6);
	  gluTessVertex(tobj, v7, v7);
	gluTessEndContour(tobj); gluTessEndPolygon(tobj);
