eglInitialize 3G
eglInitialize initialize an EGL display connection

## C Specification

EGLBoolean `eglInitialize` EGLDisplay display EGLint * major EGLint * minor

## Parameters

display

  Specifies the EGL display connection to initialize.

major

  Returns the major version number of the EGL implementation. May be `NULL`.

minor

  Returns the minor version number of the EGL implementation. May be `NULL`.

## Description

`eglInitialize` initialized the EGL display connection obtained with eglGetDisplay. Initializing an already initialized EGL display connection has no effect besides returning the version numbers.

major and minor do not return values if they are specified as `NULL`.

Use eglTerminate to release resources associated with an EGL display connection.

## Errors

`EGL_FALSE` is returned if `eglInitialize` fails, `EGL_TRUE` otherwise. major and minor are not modified when `EGL_FALSE` is returned.

`EGL_BAD_DISPLAY` is generated if display is not an EGL display connection.

`EGL_NOT_INITIALIZED` is generated if display cannot be initialized.
