## C Specification

GLboolean `glIsBuffer` GLuint buffer

## Parameters

buffer

  Specifies a value that may be the name of a buffer object.

## Description

`glIsBuffer` returns `GL_TRUE` if buffer is currently the name of a buffer object. If buffer is zero, or is a non-zero value that is not currently the name of a buffer object, or if an error occurs, `glIsBuffer` returns `GL_FALSE`.

A name returned by glGenBuffers, but not yet associated with a buffer object by calling glBindBuffer, is not the name of a buffer object.
