glStencilMask(3G)
NAME
  glStencilMask - control the writing of individual bits in the stencil
  planes

SYNOPSIS
  void glStencilMask(
	  GLuint mask );

PARAMETERS
  mask
      Specifies a bit mask to enable and disable writing of individual bits
      in the stencil planes.  Initially, the mask is all 1's.

DESCRIPTION
  glStencilMask() controls the writing of individual bits in the stencil
  planes. The least significant n bits of mask, where n is the number of bits
  in the stencil buffer, specify a mask. Where a 1 appears in the mask, it's
  possible to write to the corresponding bit in the stencil buffer. Where a 0
  appears, the corresponding bit is write-protected. Initially, all bits are
  enabled for writing.

ERRORS
  GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glStencilMask() is executed between
  the execution of glBegin() and the corresponding execution of glEnd().

ASSOCIATED GETS
       glGet() with argument GL_STENCIL_WRITEMASK
       glGet() with argument GL_STENCIL_BITS
