NAME

       glCompileShader - Compiles a shader object

C SPECIFICATION

       void glCompileShader(GLuint shader);

PARAMETERS

       shader
           Specifies the shader object to be compiled.

DESCRIPTION

       glCompileShader compiles the source code strings that have been stored in the shader
       object specified by shader.

       The compilation status will be stored as part of the shader object's state. This value
       will be set to GL_TRUE if the shader was compiled without errors and is ready for use, and
       GL_FALSE otherwise. It can be queried by calling glGetShader() with arguments shader and
       GL_COMPILE_STATUS.

       Compilation of a shader can fail for a number of reasons as specified by the OpenGL
       Shading Language Specification. Whether or not the compilation was successful, information
       about the compilation can be obtained from the shader object's information log by calling
       glGetShaderInfoLog().

ERRORS

       GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if shader is not a value generated by OpenGL.

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if shader is not a shader object.

ASSOCIATED GETS

       glGetShaderInfoLog() with argument shader

       glGetShader() with arguments shader and GL_COMPILE_STATUS

       glIsShader()
