.SH PARAMETERS
_define(@<__n>@,@<_param1>@)_C_
_define(@<__textures>@,@<_param2>@)_C_
_define(@<__residences>@,@<_param3>@)_C_
_phead(__n)
Specifies the number of textures to be queried.
_phead(__textures)
Specifies an array containing the names of the textures to be queried.
_phead(__residences)
Specifies an array in which the texture residence status is returned.
The residence status of a texture named by an element of __textures is
returned in the corresponding element of __residences.
.SH DESCRIPTION
GL establishes
a ``working set'' of textures that are resident in texture memory.
These textures can be bound to a texture target much more efficiently
than textures that are not resident.
.P
_cmnd queries the texture residence status of the __n textures named by
the elements of __textures.
If all the named textures are resident,
_cmnd returns _const(TRUE),
and the contents of __residences are undisturbed.
If not all the named textures are resident, _cmnd returns _const(FALSE),
and detailed status is returned in the __n elements of __residences.
If an element of __residences is _const(TRUE), then the texture named by
the corresponding element of __textures is resident.
.P
The residence status of a single bound texture may also be queried
by calling 
_cmnd(GetTexParameter) with the \f2target\fP argument set to the
target to which the texture is bound, and the \f2pname\fP argument
set to _const(TEXTURE_RESIDENT).
This is the only way that the residence status of a default texture can be
queried.
.SH NOTES
_cmnd is available only if the GL version is 1.1 or greater.
.P
_cmnd returns the residency status of the textures at the time of
invocation. It does not guarantee that the textures will remain
resident at any other time. 
.P
If textures reside in virtual memory (there is no texture memory), they
are considered always resident. 
.P
Some implementations may not load a texture until the first use of
that texture.
.SH ERRORS
_const(INVALID_VALUE) is generated if __n is negative.
.P
_const(INVALID_VALUE) is generated if any element in __textures
is 0 or does not name a texture. In that case, the function returns
_const(FALSE) and the contents of _param3 is indeterminate. 
.P
_const(INVALID_OPERATION) is generated if _cmnd is executed
between the execution of _cmnd(Begin) and the corresponding
execution of _cmnd(End).
.SH ASSOCIATED GETS
_cmnd(GetTexParameter) with parameter name _const(TEXTURE_RESIDENT)
retrieves the residence status of a currently bound texture.
