NAME
       glGetColorTable - retrieve contents of a color lookup table


C SPECIFICATION
       void glGetColorTable( GLenum target,
                             GLenum format,
                             GLenum type,
                             GLvoid *table )


PARAMETERS
       target  Must be GL_COLOR_TABLE, GL_POST_CONVOLUTION_COLOR_TABLE, or GL_POST_COLOR_MATRIX_COLOR_TABLE.

       format  The  of the pixel data  in  table.   The  possible  values  are  GL_RED,  GL_GREEN,  GL_BLUE,
               GL_ALPHA, GL_LUMINANCE, GL_LUMINANCE_ALPHA, GL_RGB, GL_BGR, GL_RGBA, and GL_BGRA.

       type    The  type  of  the  pixel  data  in  table.   Symbolic  constants  GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, GL_BYTE,
               GL_BITMAP,    GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT,     GL_SHORT,     GL_UNSIGNED_INT,     GL_INT,     GL_FLOAT,
               GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE_3_3_2,          GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE_2_3_3_REV,         GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_6_5,
               GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_6_5_REV,    GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_4_4_4_4,     GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_4_4_4_4_REV,
               GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_5_5_1,       GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_1_5_5_5_REV,      GL_UNSIGNED_INT_8_8_8_8,
               GL_UNSIGNED_INT_8_8_8_8_REV, GL_UNSIGNED_INT_10_10_10_2,  and  GL_UNSIGNED_INT_2_10_10_10_REV
               are accepted.

       table   Pointer  to a one-dimensional array of pixel data containing the contents of the color table.

DESCRIPTION
       glGetColorTable returns in table the contents of the color table specified by target. No pixel trans-fer transfer
       fer  operations  are  performed, but pixel storage modes that are applicable to glReadPixels are per-formed. performed.
       formed.

       Color components that are requested in the specified format, but which are not included in the inter-nal internal
       nal
        of  the  color  lookup table, are returned as zero.  The assignments of internal color components to
       the components requested by format are


        Internal Component   Resulting Component
        red                  red
        green                green
        blue                 blue
        alpha                alpha
        luminance            red
        intensity            red



NOTES
       glGetColorTable is present only if GL_ARB_imaging is returned when  glGetString  is  called  with  an
       argument of GL_EXTENSIONS.


ERRORS
       GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if target is not one of the allowable values.

       GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if format is not one of the allowable values.

       GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if type is not one of the allowable values.

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION     is     generated    if    type    is    one    of    GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE_3_3_2,
       GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE_2_3_3_REV, GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_6_5, or GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_6_5_REV and format is not
       GL_RGB.

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION    is    generated    if    type    is    one    of   GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_4_4_4_4,
       GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_4_4_4_4_REV,       GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_5_5_5_1,        GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_1_5_5_5_REV,
       GL_UNSIGNED_INT_8_8_8_8,       GL_UNSIGNED_INT_8_8_8_8_REV,       GL_UNSIGNED_INT_10_10_10_2,      or
       GL_UNSIGNED_INT_2_10_10_10_REV and format is neither GL_RGBA nor GL_BGRA.

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glGetColorTable is executed between the execution of glBegin and
       the corresponding execution of glEnd.
