NAME

glutDestroyWindow - Destroy a window and associated subwindows

LIBRARY

OpenGLUT - window

SYNOPSIS

In openglut.h Ft void Fn glutDestroyWindow int windowID

PARAMETERS

Bf Em
windowID Ef
Window identifier

DESCRIPTION

After this function is invoked, the only further event that may be delivered for your window is the one for its destruction. All other events should be discarded.

Once a window has been destroyed, further attempts to use the window named by Bf Sy
windowID Ef
are undefined. OpenGLUT generally tries to be sensible, and should not recycle the dead Bf Sy
windowID, Ef
but you should treat a destroyed window much like a pointer to deallocated memory and try not to use it.
