glTexSubImage1D

The glTexSubImage1D function specifies a portion of an existing one-dimensional texture image. You cannot define a new texture with glTexSubImage1D.

void glTexSubImage1D(
  GLenum target,        
  GLint level,          
  GLint xoffset,        
  GLsizei width,        
  GLenum format,        
  GLenum type,          
  const GLvoid *pixels  
);

Parameters

target
The target texture. Must be GL_TEXTURE_1D.
level
The level-of-detail number. Level 0 is the base image. Level n is the nth mipmap reduction image.
xoffset
A texel offset in the x direction within the texture array.
width
The width of the texture sub-image.
format
The format of the pixel data. This parameter can assume one of the following symbolic values:
GL_COLOR_INDEX
Each element is a single value, a color index. It is converted to fixed point format (with an unspecified number of 0 bits to the right of the binary point), shifted left or right depending on the value and sign of GL_INDEX_SHIFT, and added to GL_INDEX_OFFSET (see glPixelTransfer). The resulting index is converted to a set of color components using the GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_R, GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_G, GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_B, and GL_PIXEL_MAP_I_TO_A tables, and clamped to the range [0,1].
GL_RED
Each element is a single red component. It is converted to floating point format and assembled into an RGBA element by attaching 0.0 for green and blue, and 1.0 for alpha. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see glPixelTransfer).
GL_GREEN
Each element is a single green component. It is converted to floating point format and assembled into an RGBA element by attaching 0.0 for red and blue, and 1.0 for alpha. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see glPixelTransfer).
GL_BLUE
Each element is a single blue component. It is converted to floating point format and assembled into an RGBA element by attaching 0.0 for red and green, and 1.0 for alpha. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see glPixelTransfer).
GL_ALPHA
Each element is a single alpha component. It is converted to floating point format and assembled into an RGBA element by attaching 0.0 for red, green, and blue. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see glPixelTransfer).
GL_RGB
Each element is an RGB triple. It is converted to floating point and assembled into an RGBA element by attaching 1.0 for alpha. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see glPixelTransfer).
GL_RGBA
Each element is a complete RGBA element. It is converted to floating point format. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see glPixelTransfer).
GL_LUMINANCE
Each element is a single luminance value. It is converted to floating point format, and then assembled into an RGBA element by replicating the luminance value three times for red, green, and blue, and attaching 1.0 for alpha. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see glPixelTransfer).
GL_LUMINANCE_ALPHA
Each element is a luminance/alpha pair. It is converted to floating point format, and then assembled into an RGBA element by replicating the luminance value three times for red, green, and blue. Each component is then multiplied by the signed scale factor GL_c_SCALE, added to the signed bias GL_c_BIAS, and clamped to the range [0,1] (see glPixelTransfer).
type
The data type of the pixel data. The following symbolic values are accepted: GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, GL_BYTE, GL_BITMAP, GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT, GL_SHORT, GL_UNSIGNED_INT, GL_INT, and GL_FLOAT.
pixels
A pointer to the image data in memory.

Remarks

One-dimensional texturing for a primitive is enabled using glEnable and glDisable with the argument GL_TEXTURE_1D. During texturing, part of a specified texture image is mapped onto each enabled primitive. You use the glTexSubImage1D function to specify a contiguous sub-image of an existing one-dimensional texture image for texturing.

The texels referenced by pixels replace a region of the existing texture array with x indexes of xoffset and xoffset + (width – 1) inclusive. This region cannot include any texels outside the range of the originally specified texture array.

Specifying a sub-image with a width of zero has no effect and does not generate an error.

Texturing has no effect in color-index mode.

In general, texture images can be represented by the same data formats as the pixels in a glDrawPixels command, except that GL_STENCIL_INDEX and GL_DEPTH_COMPONENT cannot be used. The glPixelStore and glPixelTransfer modes affect texture images in exactly the way they affect glDrawPixels.

Error Codes

The following are the error codes generated and their conditions.

Error Code Condition
GL_INVALID_ENUM target was not GL_TEXTURE_1D.
GL_INVALID_ENUM format was not an accepted constant.
GL_INVALID_ENUM type was not a constant.
GL_INVALID_ENUM type was GL_BITMAP and format was not GL_COLOR_INDEX.
GL_INVALID_VALUE level was less than zero or greater than log (2) max, where max was the returned value of GL_MAX_TEXTURE_SIZE.
GL_INVALID_VALUE xoffset was less than –b, or xoffset + width was greater than w – b, where w is the GL_TEXTURE_WIDTH, and b is the width of the GL_TEXTURE_BORDER of the texture image being modified.

Note that w includes twice the border width.
GL_INVALID_VALUE width was less than –b, where b is the border width of the texture array.
GL_INVALID_VALUE border was not zero or 1.
GL_INVALID_OPERATION The texture array was not defined by a previous glTexImage1D operation.
GL_INVALID_OPERATION glTexSubImage1D was called between a call to glBegin and the corresponding call to glEnd.
