<refsect1 id="description"><title>Description</title>
<para><function>glGetShaderSource</function> returns the
concatenation of the source code strings from the shader object
specified by <parameter>shader</parameter>. The source code
strings for a shader object are the result of a previous call to
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>glShaderSource</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.
The string returned by the function will be null
terminated.</para>
<para><function>glGetShaderSource</function> returns in
<parameter>source</parameter> as much of the source code string
as it can, up to a maximum of <parameter>bufSize</parameter>
characters. The number of characters actually returned,
excluding the null termination character, is specified by
<parameter>length</parameter>. If the length of the returned
string is not required, a value of <constant>NULL</constant> can
be passed in the <parameter>length</parameter> argument. The
size of the buffer required to store the returned source code
string can be obtained by calling
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>glGetShader</refentrytitle></citerefentry>
with the value
<constant>GL_SHADER_SOURCE_LENGTH</constant>.</para>
