            <code class="function">glGetQueryObject</code> returns in <em class="parameter"><code>params</code></em> a selected parameter of the query object
            specified by <em class="parameter"><code>id</code></em>.

            <em class="parameter"><code>pname</code></em> names a specific query object parameter.  <em class="parameter"><code>pname</code></em> can be as follows:

                        If a delay would occur waiting for the query result, <code class="constant">GL_FALSE</code> is returned.  
                        Otherwise, <code class="constant">GL_TRUE</code> is returned, which also indicates that the results of all
                        previous queries are available as well.
