glCompressedTexImage3D

specify a three-dimensional texture image in a compressed format

# C Specification

                    void glCompressedTexImage3D
                    GLenum target
                    GLint level
                    GLenum internalformat
                    GLsizei width
                    GLsizei height
                    GLsizei depth
                    GLint border
                    GLsizei imageSize
                    const GLvoid * data

## Parameters

`target`

- Specifies the target texture. Must be `GL_TEXTURE_3D`, or `GL_TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY`.

`level`

- Specifies the level-of-detail number. Level 0 is the base image level. Level n is the nth mipmap reduction image.

`internalformat`

- Specifies the format of the compressed image data stored at address `data`.

`width`

- Specifies the width of the texture image.

`height`

- Specifies the height of the texture image.

`depth`

- Specifies the depth of the texture image.

`border`

- This value must be 0.

`imageSize`

- Specifies the number of unsigned bytes of image data starting at the address specified by `data`.

`data`

- Specifies a pointer to the compressed image data in memory.

## Description

Texturing allows elements of an image array to be read by shaders.

`glCompressedTexImage3D` loads a previously defined, and retrieved, compressed three-dimensional texture image if `target` is `GL_TEXTURE_3D` (see

glTexImage3D

).

If `target` is `GL_TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY`, `data` is treated as an array of compressed 2D textures.

`internalformat` must be a compressed image format from Table 1 below, or an extension-specified compressed-texture format.

`imageSize` must be appropriate for the `width`, `height` and `depth` of the `internalformat` specified. The size for a single slice of ETC/EAC is given in Table 1 below.

If a non-zero named buffer object is bound to the `GL_PIXEL_UNPACK_BUFFER` target (see

glBindBuffer

) while a texture image is specified, `data` is treated as a byte offset into the buffer object's data store.

## Errors

`GL_INVALID_ENUM` is generated if `internalformat` is not one of the specific compressed internal formats: `GL_COMPRESSED_R11_EAC`, `GL_COMPRESSED_SIGNED_R11_EAC`, `GL_COMPRESSED_RG11_EAC`, `GL_COMPRESSED_SIGNED_RG11_EAC`, `GL_COMPRESSED_RGB8_ETC2`, `GL_COMPRESSED_SRGB8_ETC2`, `GL_COMPRESSED_RGB8_PUNCHTHROUGH_ALPHA1_ETC2`, `GL_COMPRESSED_SRGB8_PUNCHTHROUGH_ALPHA1_ETC2`, `GL_COMPRESSED_RGBA8_ETC2_EAC`, or `GL_COMPRESSED_SRGB8_ALPHA8_ETC2_EAC`.

`GL_INVALID_VALUE` is generated if `imageSize` is not consistent with the format, dimensions, and contents of the specified compressed image data.

`GL_INVALID_VALUE` is generated if `border` is not 0.

`GL_INVALID_OPERATION` is generated if parameter combinations are not supported by the specific compressed internal format as specified in the specific texture compression extension. The ETC2/EAC texture compression algorithm supports only two-dimensional images. If internalformat is an ETC2/EAC format, `glCompressedTexImage3D` will generate an INVALID_OPERATION error if target is not TEXTURE_2D_ARRAY.

`GL_INVALID_OPERATION` is generated if a non-zero buffer object name is bound to the `GL_PIXEL_UNPACK_BUFFER` target and the buffer object's data store is currently mapped.

`GL_INVALID_OPERATION` is generated if a non-zero buffer object name is bound to the `GL_PIXEL_UNPACK_BUFFER` target and the data would be unpacked from the buffer object such that the memory reads required would exceed the data store size.

Undefined results, including abnormal program termination, are generated if `data` is not encoded in a manner consistent with the extension specification defining the internal compression format.
