## Name

glFramebufferRenderbuffer, glNamedFramebufferRenderbuffer — attach a renderbuffer as a logical buffer of a framebuffer object

## C Specification

`void glFramebufferRenderbuffer(` | GLenum target,
| GLenum attachment,
| GLenum renderbuffertarget,
| GLuint renderbuffer`)`;

`void glNamedFramebufferRenderbuffer(` | GLuint framebuffer,
| GLenum attachment,
| GLenum renderbuffertarget,
| GLuint renderbuffer`)`;

## Parameters

`target`

  Specifies the target to which the framebuffer is bound for `glFramebufferRenderbuffer`.

`framebuffer`

  Specifies the name of the framebuffer object for `glNamedFramebufferRenderbuffer`.

`attachment`

  Specifies the attachment point of the framebuffer.

`renderbuffertarget`

  Specifies the renderbuffer target. Must be `GL_RENDERBUFFER`.

`renderbuffer`

  Specifies the name of an existing renderbuffer object of type `renderbuffertarget` to attach.

## Description

`glFramebufferRenderbuffer` and `glNamedFramebufferRenderbuffer` attaches a renderbuffer as one of the logical buffers of the specified framebuffer object. Renderbuffers cannot be attached to the default draw and read framebuffer, so they are not valid targets of these commands.

For `glFramebufferRenderbuffer`, the framebuffer object is that bound to `target`, which must be `GL_DRAW_FRAMEBUFFER`, `GL_READ_FRAMEBUFFER` or `GL_FRAMEBUFFER`. `GL_FRAMEBUFFER` is equivalent to `GL_DRAW_FRAMEBUFFER`.

For `glNamedFramebufferRenderbuffer`, `framebuffer` is the name of the framebuffer object.

`renderbuffertarget` must be `GL_RENDERBUFFER`.

`renderbuffer` must be zero or the name of an existing renderbuffer object of type `renderbuffertarget`. If `renderbuffer` is not zero, then the specified renderbuffer will be used as the logical buffer identified by `attachment` of the specified framebuffer object. If `renderbuffer` is zero, then the value of `renderbuffertarget` is ignored.

`attachment` specifies the logical attachment of the framebuffer and must be `GL_COLOR_ATTACHMENT`i, `GL_DEPTH_ATTACHMENT`, `GL_STENCIL_ATTACHMENT` or `GL_DEPTH_STENCIL_ATTACHMENT`. i in may range from zero to the value of `GL_MAX_COLOR_ATTACHMENTS` minus one. Setting `attachment` to the value `GL_DEPTH_STENCIL_ATTACHMENT` is a special case causing both the depth and stencil attachments of the specified framebuffer object to be set to `renderbuffer`, which should have the base internal format `GL_DEPTH_STENCIL`.

The value of `GL_FRAMEBUFFER_ATTACHMENT_OBJECT_TYPE` for the specified attachment point is set to `GL_RENDERBUFFER` and the value of `GL_FRAMEBUFFER_ATTACHMENT_OBJECT_NAME` is set to `renderbuffer`. All other state values of specified attachment point are set to their default values. No change is made to the state of the renderbuuffer object and any previous attachment to the `attachment` logical buffer of the specified framebuffer object is broken.

If `renderbuffer` is zero, these commands will detach the image, if any, identified by the specified attachment point of the specified framebuffer object. All state values of the attachment point are set to their default values.

## Errors

`GL_INVALID_ENUM` is generated by `glFramebufferRenderbuffer` if `target` is not one of the accepted framebuffer targets.

`GL_INVALID_OPERATION` is generated by `glFramebufferRenderbuffer` if zero is bound to `target`.

`GL_INVALID_OPERATION` is generated by `glNamedFramebufferRenderbuffer` if `framebuffer` is not the name of an existing framebuffer object.

`GL_INVALID_ENUM` is generated if `attachment` is not one of the accepted attachment points.

`GL_INVALID_ENUM` is generated if `renderbuffertarget` is not `GL_RENDERBUFFER`.

`GL_INVALID_OPERATION` is generated if `renderbuffertarget` is not zero or the name of an existing renderbuffer object of type `GL_RENDERBUFFER`.
