GLUCYLINDER() GLUCYLINDER() NAME gluCylinder - draw a cylinder C SPECIFICATION void gluCylinder( GLUquadric* quad, GLdouble base, GLdouble top, GLdouble height, GLint slices, GLint stacks ) delim $$ PARAMETERS quad Specifies the quadrics object (created with gluNewQuadric). base Specifies the radius of the cylinder at z = 0. top Specifies the radius of the cylinder at z = height. height Specifies the height of the cylinder. slices Specifies the number of subdivisions around the z axis. stacks Specifies the number of subdivisions along the z axis. DESCRIPTION gluCylinder draws a cylinder oriented along the z axis. The base of the cylinder is placed at z = 0, and the top at $ z = "height" $. Like a sphere, a cylinder is subdivided around the z axis into slices, and along the z axis into stacks. Note that if top is set to 0.0, this routine generates a cone. If the orientation is set to GLU_OUTSIDE (with gluQuadricOrientation), then any generated normals point away from the z axis. Otherwise, they point toward the z axis. If texturing is turned on (with gluQuadricTexture), then texture coor- dinates are generated so that t ranges linearly from 0.0 at z = 0 to 1.0 at z = height, and s ranges from 0.0 at the +y axis, to 0.25 at the +x axis, to 0.5 at the -y axis, to 0.75 at the -x axis, and back to 1.0 at the +y axis.
