NAME

       glPushDebugGroup - push a named debug group into the command stream

C SPECIFICATION

       void glPushDebugGroup(GLenum source, GLuint id, GLsizei length, const char * message);

PARAMETERS

       source
           The source of the debug message.

       id
           The identifier of the message.

       length
           The length of the message to be sent to the debug output stream.

       message
           The a string containing the message to be sent to the debug output stream.

DESCRIPTION

       glPushDebugGroup pushes a debug group described by the string message into the command
       stream. The value of id specifies the ID of messages generated. The parameter length
       contains the number of characters in message. If length is negative, it is implied that
       message contains a null terminated string. The message has the specified source and id,
       the typeGL_DEBUG_TYPE_PUSH_GROUP, and severityGL_DEBUG_SEVERITY_NOTIFICATION. The GL will
       put a new debug group on top of the debug group stack which inherits the control of the
       volume of debug output of the debug group previously residing on the top of the debug
       group stack. Because debug groups are strictly hierarchical, any additional control of the
       debug output volume will only apply within the active debug group and the debug groups
       pushed on top of the active debug group.

ERRORS

       GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if the value of source is neither GL_DEBUG_SOURCE_APPLICATION
       nor GL_DEBUG_SOURCE_THIRD_PARTY.

       GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if length is negative and the number of characters in
       message, excluding the null-terminator, is not less than the value of
       GL_MAX_DEBUG_MESSAGE_LENGTH.

ASSOCIATED GETS

       glGet() with argument GL_MAX_DEBUG_MESSAGE_LENGTH.
