# glIsEnabled

## Name

glIsEnabled, glIsEnabledi — test whether a capability is enabled

## C Specification

`GLboolean glIsEnabled(` | GLenum cap`)`;

`GLboolean glIsEnabledi(` | GLenum cap,
| GLuint index`)`;

## Parameters

`cap`

  Specifies a symbolic constant indicating a GL capability.

`index`

  Specifies the index of the capability.

## Description

`glIsEnabled` returns `GL_TRUE` if `cap` is an enabled capability and returns `GL_FALSE` otherwise. Boolean states that are indexed may be tested with `glIsEnabledi`. For `glIsEnabledi`, `index` specifies the index of the capability to test. `index` must be between zero and the count of indexed capabilities for `cap`. Initially all capabilities except `GL_DITHER` are disabled; `GL_DITHER` is initially enabled.

The following capabilities are accepted for `cap`:

`GL_CLIP_DISTANCE` i | glEnable
`GL_COLOR_LOGIC_OP` | glLogicOp

`GL_SAMPLE_MASK` | glEnable
`GL_SCISSOR_TEST` | glScissor
`GL_STENCIL_TEST` | glStencilFunc, glStencilOp
`GL_TEXTURE_CUBE_MAP_SEAMLESS` | glEnable

## Notes

If an error is generated, `glIsEnabled` and `glIsEnabledi` return `GL_FALSE`.

`GL_DEBUG_OUTPUT` and `GL_DEBUG_OUTPUT_SYNCHRONOUS` are available only if the GL version is 4.3 or greater.

## Errors

`GL_INVALID_ENUM` is generated if `cap` is not an accepted value.

`GL_INVALID_VALUE` is generated by `glIsEnabledi` if `index` is outside the valid range for the indexed state `cap`.
