glGetProgramPipeline

retrieve properties of a program pipeline object

# C Specification

                    void glGetProgramPipelineiv
                    GLuint pipeline
                    GLenum pname
                    GLint *params

## Parameters

`pipeline`

- Specifies the name of a program pipeline object whose parameter retrieve.

`pname`

- Specifies the name of the parameter to retrieve.

`params`

- Specifies the address of a variable into which will be written the value or values of `pname` for `pipeline`.

## Description

`glGetProgramPipelineiv` retrieves the value of a property of the program pipeline object `pipeline`. `pname` specifies the name of the parameter whose value to retrieve. The value of the parameter is written to the variable whose address is given by `params`.

If `pname` is `GL_ACTIVE_PROGRAM`, the name of the active program object of the program pipeline object is returned in `params`.

If `pname` is `GL_VERTEX_SHADER`, the name of the current program object for the vertex shader type of the program pipeline object is returned in `params`.

If `pname` is `GL_TESS_CONTROL_SHADER`, the name of the current program object for the tessellation control shader type of the program pipeline object is returned in `params`.

If `pname` is `GL_TESS_EVALUATION_SHADER`, the name of the current program object for the tessellation evaluation shader type of the program pipeline object is returned in `params`.

If `pname` is `GL_GEOMETRY_SHADER`, the name of the current program object for the geometry shader type of the program pipeline object is returned in `params`.

If `pname` is `GL_FRAGMENT_SHADER`, the name of the current program object for the fragment shader type of the program pipeline object is returned in `params`.

If `pname` is `GL_INFO_LOG_LENGTH`, the length of the info log, including the null terminator, is returned in `params`. If there is no info log, zero is returned.

## Errors

`GL_INVALID_OPERATION` is generated if `pipeline` is not zero or a name previously returned from a call to

glGenProgramPipelines

or if such a name has been deleted by a call to

glDeleteProgramPipelines

.

`GL_INVALID_ENUM` is generated if `pname` is not one of the accepted values.
