void glInitNames( void )

The name stack is used during selection mode to allow sets of rendering commands to be uniquely identified. It consists of an ordered set of unsigned integers.  glInitNames causes the name stack to be initialized to its default empty state.

The name stack is always empty while the render mode is not  GL_SELECT. Calls to  glInitNames while the render mode is not  GL_SELECT are ignored.

 GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if  glInitNames is executed between the execution of  glBegin and the corresponding execution of  glEnd.

 glGet with argument  GL_NAME_STACK_DEPTH
 glGet with argument  GL_MAX_NAME_STACK_DEPTH

 glLoadName(3G),  glPushName(3G),  glRenderMode(3G),  glSelectBuffer(3G)
