NAME

       glRenderbufferStorage - establish data storage, format and dimensions of a renderbuffer object's image

C SPECIFICATION

       void glRenderbufferStorage(GLenum target, GLenum internalformat, GLsizei width, GLsizei height);

PARAMETERS

       target
           Specifies a binding to which the target of the allocation and must be GL_RENDERBUFFER.

       internalformat
           Specifies the internal format to use for the renderbuffer object's image.

       width
           Specifies the width of the renderbuffer, in pixels.

       height
           Specifies the height of the renderbuffer, in pixels.

DESCRIPTION

       glRenderbufferStorage is equivalent to calling glRenderbufferStorageMultisample() with the samples set to
       zero.

       The target of the operation, specified by target must be GL_RENDERBUFFER.  internalformat specifies the
       internal format to be used for the renderbuffer object's storage and must be a color-renderable,
       depth-renderable, or stencil-renderable format.  width and height are the dimensions, in pixels, of the
       renderbuffer. Both width and height must be less than or equal to the value of GL_MAX_RENDERBUFFER_SIZE.

       Upon success, glRenderbufferStorage deletes any existing data store for the renderbuffer image and the
       contents of the data store after calling glRenderbufferStorage are undefined.

ERRORS

       GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if target is not GL_RENDERBUFFER.

       GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if either of width or height is negative, or greater than the value of
       GL_MAX_RENDERBUFFER_SIZE.

       GL_INVALID_ENUM is generated if internalformat is not a color-renderable, depth-renderable, or
       stencil-renderable format.

       GL_OUT_OF_MEMORY is generated if the GL is unable to create a data store of the requested size.
