GLUBEGINPOLYGON()					       GLUBEGINPOLYGON()

NAME
     gluBeginPolygon, gluEndPolygon - delimit a polygon description

C SPECIFICATION
     void gluBeginPolygon( GLUtesselator* tess )

     void gluEndPolygon( GLUtesselator* tess )

     delim $$

PARAMETERS
     tess  Specifies the tessellation object (created with gluNewTess).

DESCRIPTION
     gluBeginPolygon  and  gluEndPolygon  delimit  the definition of a nonconvex
     polygon.  To define such a polygon, first call gluBeginPolygon.   Then  de-
     fine  the	contours of the polygon by calling gluTessVertex for each vertex
     and gluNextContour to start each new contour.  Finally, call  gluEndPolygon
     to signal the end of the definition.  See the gluTessVertex and gluNextCon-
     tour reference pages for more details.

     Once gluEndPolygon is called, the polygon is tessellated, and the resulting
     triangles	are  described	through  callbacks.  See gluTessCallback for de-
     scriptions of the callback functions.

NOTES
     This command is obsolete and is provided for backward  compatibility  only.
     Calls  to	gluBeginPolygon  are  mapped  to gluTessBeginPolygon followed by
     gluTessBeginContour. Calls to gluEndPolygon are mapped to gluTessEndContour
     followed by gluTessEndPolygon.

EXAMPLE
     A quadrilateral with a triangular hole in it can be described like this:

     gluBeginPolygon(tobj);
	gluTessVertex(tobj, v1, v1);
	gluTessVertex(tobj, v2, v2);
	gluTessVertex(tobj, v3, v3);
	gluTessVertex(tobj, v4, v4); gluNextContour(tobj, GLU_INTERIOR);
	gluTessVertex(tobj, v5, v5);
	gluTessVertex(tobj, v6, v6);
	gluTessVertex(tobj, v7, v7); gluEndPolygon(tobj);
