glutdeviceget(3)

NAME

glutDeviceGet - retrieves GLUT device information repre
sented by integers.

SYNTAX

int glutDeviceGet(GLenum info);

ARGUMENTS

info Name of device information to retrieve.

GLUT_HAS_KEYBOARD

Non-zero if a keyboard is available; zero if not
available. For most GLUT implementations, a key
board can be assumed.

GLUT_HAS_MOUSE

Non-zero if a mouse is available; zero if not
available. For most GLUT implementations, a key
board can be assumed.

GLUT_HAS_SPACEBALL

Non-zero if a Spaceball is available; zero if not
available.

GLUT_HAS_DIAL_AND_BUTTON_BOX

Non-zero if a dial & button box is available; zero
if not available.

GLUT_HAS_TABLET

Non-zero if a tablet is available; zero if not
available.

GLUT_NUM_MOUSE_BUTTONS

Number of buttons supported by the mouse. If no
mouse is supported, zero is returned.

GLUT_NUM_SPACEBALL_BUTTONS

Number of buttons supported by the Spaceball. If
no Spaceball is supported, zero is returned.

GLUT_NUM_BUTTON_BOX_BUTTONS

Number of buttons supported by the dial & button
box device. If no dials & button box device is
supported, zero is returned.

GLUT_NUM_DIALS

Number of dials supported by the dial & button box
device. If no dials & button box device is sup
ported, zero is returned.

GLUT_NUM_TABLET_BUTTONS

Number of buttons supported by the tablet. If no
tablet is supported, zero is returned.

GLUT_DEVICE_IGNORE_KEY_REPEAT

Returns true if the current window's auto repeated
keys are ignored. This state is controlled by
glutIgnoreKeyRepeat.

GLUT_DEVICE_KEY_REPEAT

The window system's global key repeat state.
Returns either GLUT_KEY_REPEAT_OFF,
GLUT_KEY_REPEAT_ON, or GLUT_KEY_REPEAT_DEFAULT.
This will not necessarily return the value last
passed to glutSetKeyRepeat.

GLUT_JOYSTICK_POLL_RATE

Returns the current window's joystick poll rate as
set by glutJoystickFunc. If no joystick is sup
ported, the poll rate will always be zero. The
joystick poll rate also returns zero if the poll
rate last specified to glutJoystickFunc is nega
tive or a NULL callback was registered.

GLUT_HAS_JOYSTICK

Non-zero if a joystick is available; zero if not
available.

GLUT_JOYSTICK_BUTTONS

Number of buttons supported by the joystick. If
no joystick is supported, zero is returned.

GLUT_JOYSTICK_AXES

Number of axes supported by the joystick. If no
joystick is supposrted, zero is returned.

DESCRIPTION

glutDeviceGet retrieves GLUT device information repre
sented by integers. The info parameter determines what
type of device information to return. Requesting device
information for an invalid GLUT device information name
returns negative one.

X IMPLEMENTATION NOTES

The current implementation uses to X Input extension to
regonize SGI's Spaceball, tablet, and dial and button box
devices.

WIN32 IMPLEMENTATION NOTES

The GLUT_DEVICE_KEY_REPEAT alwasy returns
GLUT_KEY_REPEAT_ON.
