NAME

       glGetCompressedTexImage - return a compressed texture image

C SPECIFICATION

       void glGetCompressedTexImage(GLenum target, GLint lod, GLvoid * img);

PARAMETERS

       target
           Specifies which texture is to be obtained.  GL_TEXTURE_1D, GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_3D,
           GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_POSITIVE_X, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_NEGATIVE_X, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_POSITIVE_Y,
           GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_NEGATIVE_Y, GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_POSITIVE_Z, and GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_NEGATIVE_Z
           are accepted.

       lod
           Specifies the level-of-detail number of the desired image. Level 0 is the base image level. Level n
           is the nth mipmap reduction image.

       img
           Returns the compressed texture image.

DESCRIPTION

       glGetCompressedTexImage returns the compressed texture image associated with target and lod into img.
       img should be an array of GL_TEXTURE_COMPRESSED_IMAGE_SIZE bytes.  target specifies whether the desired
       texture image was one specified by glTexImage1D() (GL_TEXTURE_1D), glTexImage2D() (GL_TEXTURE_2D or any
       of GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_*), or glTexImage3D() (GL_TEXTURE_3D).  lod specifies the level-of-detail number
       of the desired image.

       If a non-zero named buffer object is bound to the GL_PIXEL_PACK_BUFFER target (see glBindBuffer()) while
       a texture image is requested, img is treated as a byte offset into the buffer object's data store.

       To minimize errors, first verify that the texture is compressed by calling glGetTexLevelParameter() with
       argument GL_TEXTURE_COMPRESSED. If the texture is compressed, then determine the amount of memory
       required to store the compressed texture by calling glGetTexLevelParameter() with argument
       GL_TEXTURE_COMPRESSED_IMAGE_SIZE. Finally, retrieve the internal format of the texture by calling
       glGetTexLevelParameter() with argument GL_TEXTURE_INTERNAL_FORMAT. To store the texture for later use,
       associate the internal format and size with the retrieved texture image. These data can be used by the
       respective texture or subtexture loading routine used for loading target textures.

ERRORS

       GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if lod is less than zero or greater than the maximum number of LODs
       permitted by the implementation.

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glGetCompressedTexImage is used to retrieve a texture that is in an
       uncompressed internal format.

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if a non-zero buffer object name is bound to the GL_PIXEL_PACK_BUFFER
       target and the buffer object's data store is currently mapped.

       GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if a non-zero buffer object name is bound to the GL_PIXEL_PACK_BUFFER
       target and the data would be packed to the buffer object such that the memory writes required would
       exceed the data store size.
