glCallList - execute a display list

void glCallList( GLuint list )












  

  
Specifies the integer name of the display list to be executed.










glCallList causes the named display list to be executed.
    The commands saved in the display list are executed in order, just as if
    they were called without using a display list. If list has not been
    defined as a display list, glCallList is ignored.


glCallList can appear inside a display list. To avoid the
    possibility of infinite recursion resulting from display lists calling one
    another, a limit is placed on the nesting level of display lists during
    display-list execution. This limit is at least 64, and it depends on the
    implementation.


GL state is not saved and restored across a call to
    glCallList. Thus, changes made to GL state during the execution of a
    display list remain after execution of the display list is completed. Use
    glPushAttrib, glPopAttrib, glPushMatrix, and
    glPopMatrix to preserve GL state across glCallList calls.








Display lists can be executed between a call to glBegin and
    the corresponding call to glEnd, as long as the display list includes
    only commands that are allowed in this interval.
