NAME fgluBeginSurface, fgluEndSurface - delimit a NURBS surface definition FORTRAN SPECIFICATION SUBROUTINE fgluBeginSurface( CHARACTER*8 nurb ) SUBROUTINE fgluEndSurface( CHARACTER*8 nurb ) PARAMETERS nurb Specifies the NURBS object (created with fgluNewNurbsRenderer). DESCRIPTION Use fgluBeginSurface to mark the beginning of a NURBS surface definition. After calling fgluBeginSurface, make one or more calls to fgluNurbsSurface to define the attributes of the surface. Exactly one of these calls to fgluNurbsSurface must have a surface type of GL_MAP2_VERTEX_3 or GL_MAP2_VERTEX_4. To mark the end of the NURBS surface definition, call fgluEndSurface. Trimming of NURBS surfaces is supported with fgluBeginTrim, fgluPwlCurve, fgluNurbsCurve, and fgluEndTrim. See the fgluBeginTrim reference page for details. GL evaluators are used to render the NURBS surface as a set of polygons. Evaluator state is preserved during rendering with glPushAttrib(GL_EVAL_BIT) and glPopAttrib(). See the glPushAttrib reference page for details on exactly what state these calls preserve. EXAMPLE The following commands render a textured NURBS surface with normals; the texture coordinates and normals are also described as NURBS surfaces: gluBeginSurface(nobj); gluNurbsSurface(nobj, ..., GL_MAP2_TEXTURE_COORD_2); gluNurbsSurface(nobj, ..., GL_MAP2_NORMAL); gluNurbsSurface(nobj, ..., GL_MAP2_VERTEX_4); gluEndSurface(nobj); SEE ALSO fgluBeginCurve, fgluBeginTrim, fgluNewNurbsRenderer, fgluNurbsCurve, fgluNurbsSurface, fgluPwlCurve
