C Specification

EGLint eglGetError(void)

Description

eglGetError returns the error of the last called EGL function in the current thread. Initially, the error is set to EGL_SUCCESS.

The following errors are currently defined:

EGL_SUCCESS

The last function succeeded without error.

EGL_NOT_INITIALIZED

EGL is not initialized, or could not be initialized, for the specified EGL display connection.

EGL_BAD_ACCESS

EGL cannot access a requested resource (for example a context is bound in another thread).

EGL_BAD_ALLOC

EGL failed to allocate resources for the requested operation.

EGL_BAD_ATTRIBUTE

An unrecognized attribute or attribute value was passed in the attribute list.

EGL_BAD_CONTEXT

An EGLContext argument does not name a valid EGL rendering context.

EGL_BAD_CONFIG

An EGLConfig argument does not name a valid EGL frame buffer configuration.

EGL_BAD_CURRENT_SURFACE

The current surface of the calling thread is a window, pixel buffer or pixmap that is no longer valid.

EGL_BAD_DISPLAY

An EGLDisplay argument does not name a valid EGL display connection.

EGL_BAD_SURFACE

An EGLSurface argument does not name a valid surface (window, pixel buffer or pixmap) configured for GL rendering.

EGL_BAD_MATCH

Arguments are inconsistent (for example, a valid context requires buffers not supplied by a valid surface).

EGL_BAD_PARAMETER

One or more argument values are invalid.

EGL_BAD_NATIVE_PIXMAP

A NativePixmapType argument does not refer to a valid native pixmap.

EGL_BAD_NATIVE_WINDOW

A NativeWindowType argument does not refer to a valid native window.

Errors

A call to eglGetError sets the error to EGL_SUCCESS.
