<p> The OpenGL Registry contains specifications of the core API and
    shading language; specifications of Khronos- and vendor-approved
    OpenGL extensions; header files corresponding to the specifications; and
    related documentation including specifications, extensions, and headers
    for the GLX, WGL, and GLU APIs. </p>

<p> The OpenGL registry is part of the <a
    href="http://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenGL/"> Combined OpenGL Registry </a>
    for OpenGL, OpenGL ES, and OpenGL SC, which includes the <a
    href="xml/README.md">XML API registry</a> of reserved enumerants and
    functions. </p>

<h2> <a name="headers"></a> API and Extension Header Files </h2>

<p> Because extensions vary from platform to platform and driver to
    driver, OpenGL developers can't expect interfaces for all extensions
    to be defined in the standard <tt>gl.h</tt>, <tt>glx.h</tt>, and
    <tt>wgl.h</tt> header files supplied with the OS / graphics drivers.
    Additional header files are provided here, including: </p>

<p> Almost all of the headers described below depend on a platform header
    file common to multiple Khronos APIs called
    <tt>&lt;KHR/khrplatform.h&gt;</tt>. </p>


<ul>
<li> <tt><a href="api/GL/glext.h">&lt;GL/glext.h&gt;</a></tt> - OpenGL
     1.2 and above compatibility profile and extension interfaces. </li>
<li> <tt><a href="api/GL/glcorearb.h">&lt;GL/glcorearb.h&gt;</a></tt> -
     OpenGL core profile and ARB extension interfaces, as described in
     appendix G.2 of the OpenGL 4.3 Specification. Does not include
     interfaces found only in the compatibility profile. </li>
<li> <tt><a href="api/GL/glxext.h">&lt;GL/glxext.h&gt;</a></tt> - GLX
     1.3 and above API and GLX extension interfaces. </li>
<li> <tt><a href="api/GL/wglext.h">&lt;GL/wglext.h&gt;</a></tt> - WGL
     extension interfaces. </li>
</ul>

<p> These headers define interfaces including enumerants; prototypes; and,
    for platforms supporting dynamic runtime extension queries, such as
    Linux and Microsoft Windows, function pointer typedefs. Please report
    problems as <a
    href="https://github.com/KhronosGroup/OpenGL-Registry/issues/">Issues</a>
    in the <a href="index.php#repository">OpenGL-Registry</a> repository.
    </p>

<p> <a name="headerskhr"></a> <b> Khronos Shared Platform Header
    (<tt>&lt;KHR/khrplatform.h&gt;</tt>) </b> </p>

<ul>
<li> The OpenGL headers all depend on the shared
     <a href="https://www.khronos.org/registry/EGL/api/KHR/khrplatform.h">
     <tt>&lt;KHR/khrplatform.h&gt;</tt></a> header from the <a
     href="http://www.khronos.org/registry/EGL/"> EGL Registry </a>.
     This is a new dependency, introduced in
     <a href="https://github.com/KhronosGroup/OpenGL-Registry/pull/183">
     OpenGL-Registry pull request 183</a> for increased compatibility
     between OpenGL and OpenGL ES headers. </li>
