NAME

       glBindTextures - bind one or more named textures to a sequence of consecutive texture
       units

C SPECIFICATION

       void glBindTextures(GLuint first, GLsizei count, const GLuint *textures);

PARAMETERS

       first
           Specifies the first texture unit to which a texture is to be bound.

       count
           Specifies the number of textures to bind.

       textures
           Specifies the address of an array of names of existing texture objects.

DESCRIPTION

       glBindTextures binds an array of existing texture objects to a specified number of
       consecutive texture units.  count specifies the number of texture objects whose names are
       stored in the array textures. That number of texture names are read from the array and
       bound to the count consecutive texture units starting from first. The target, or type of
       texture is deduced from the texture object and each texture is bound to the corresponding
       target of the texture unit. If the name zero appears in the textures array, any existing
       binding to any target of the texture unit is reset and the default texture for that target
       is bound in its place. Any non-zero entry in textures must be the name of an existing
       texture object. If textures is NULL then it is as if an appropriately sized array
       containing only zeros had been specified.

       With the exception that the active texture selector maintains its current value,
       glBindTextures is equivalent to the following pseudo code:

               for (i = 0; i < count; i++) {
                   GLuint texture;
                   if (textures == NULL) {
                       texture = 0;
                   } else {
                       texture = textures[i];
                   }
                   glActiveTexture(GL_TEXTURE0 + first + i);
                   if (texture != 0) {
                       GLenum target = /* target of textures[i] */;
                       glBindTexture(target, textures[i]);
                   } else {
                       for (target in all supported targets) {
                           glBindTexture(target, 0);
                       }
                   }
               }

       Each entry in textures will be checked individually and if found to be invalid, the state
       for that texture unit will not be changed and an error will be generated. However, the
       state for other texture units referenced by the command will still be updated.

NOTES

       glBindTextures is available only if the GL version is 4.4 or higher.

       Note that because glBindTextures cannot create new textures (even if a name passed has
       been previously generated by call to glGenTextures()), names pased to glBindTextures must
       have been bound at least once previously via a call to glBindTexture().

ERRORS

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if first + count is greater than the number of texture
       image units supported by the implementation.

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if any value in textures is not zero or the name of an
       existing texture object.
