Re: Anyone feel like looking up glGet constant return sizes?

I guess you mean COMPSIZE()? Did some research on this and
I found a Python script in Chromium git repo
that parses the OpenGL specs.

Starting at line 202 is a function parse_arg which parses
the COMPSIZE parameter starting at line 234.
It looks a bit cryptic to me, but maybe you can find out
what they are doing.

You can find it here:

http://git.chromium.org/gitweb/?p=external/p3/regal.git;a=blob_plain;f=src/apitrace/specs/scripts/glspec.py;hb=f21b08d5bf82f6670ecea07a44a77d537cfc4f24

Kind regards,
Walter
