glXGetClientString returns a string describing
some aspect of the client library. The possible values for name are GLX_VENDOR,
GLX_VERSION, and GLX_EXTENSIONS. If name is not set to one of these values,
glXGetClientString returns NULL. The format and contents of the vendor
string is implementation dependent.
The extensions string is null-terminated
and contains a space-separated list of extension names. (The extension names
never contain spaces.) If there are no extensions to GLX, then the empty
string is returned.
The version string is laid out as follows:
<major_version.minor_version><space><vendor-specific
info>
Both the major and minor portions of the version number are of arbitrary
length. The vendor-specific information is optional. However, if it is
present, the format and contents are implementation specific.
glXGetClientString
is available only if the GLX version is 1.1 or greater.
If the GLX version
is 1.1 or 1.0, the GL version must be 1.0. If the GLX version is 1.2, then the
GL version must be 1.1.
glXGetClientString only returns information about
GLX extensions supported by the client. Call glGetString to get a list
of GL extensions supported by the server.
