NAME

       vpCreateContext, vpDestroyContext - create/destroy a rendering context

SYNOPSIS

       #include <volpack.h>

       vpContext *
       vpCreateContext()

       void
       vpDestroyContext(vpc)
           vpContext *vpc;

ARGUMENTS

       vpc    VolPack context from vpCreateContext.

DESCRIPTION

       vpCreateContext returns a handle for a new rendering context.  It contains default values for most of the
       rendering parameters.

       vpDestroyContext destroys a rendering context and frees the  associated  memory.   Only  data  structures
       allocated  by  the  library  are  freed;  application-defined  data structures that are referenced in the
       rendering context through a pointer are not freed (e.g. arrays of volume data and shading lookup tables).
       The  application  is  responsible  for  keeping  track  of  such  data  structures  and freeing them when
       appropriate.
