<para>
<function>glGenQueries</function> returns <parameter>n</parameter> query object names in <parameter>ids</parameter>.
There is no guarantee that the names form a contiguous set of integers;
however, it is guaranteed that none of the returned names was in use
immediately before the call to <function>glGenQueries</function>.
</para>
<para>
Query object names returned by a call to <function>glGenQueries</function> are not returned by
subsequent calls, unless they are first deleted with
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>glDeleteQueries</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.
</para>
<para>
No query objects are associated with the returned query object names until they are first used by calling
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>glBeginQuery</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.

<constant>GL_INVALID_VALUE</constant> is generated if <parameter>n</parameter> is negative.

<para>
<constant>GL_INVALID_OPERATION</constant> is generated if <function>glGenQueries</function> is executed
between the execution of <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glBeginQuery</refentrytitle></citerefentry> and the corresponding
execution of <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glEndQuery</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.
