## Member Function Documentation

### `[static]` QOpenGLContext *QGLXContext::fromNative(GLXContext configBasedContext, QOpenGLContext *shareContext = nullptr)

Adopts a GLXContext configBasedContext created from an FBConfig.

The context must be created from a framebuffer configuration, using the `glXCreateNewContext` function.

Ownership of the created QOpenGLContext shareContext is transferred to the caller.

### `[static]` QOpenGLContext *QGLXContext::fromNative(GLXContext visualBasedContext, void *visualInfo, QOpenGLContext *shareContext = nullptr)

Adopts a GLXContext created from an X visual.

The context must be created from a visual, using the `glXCreateContext` function. The same visual must be passed as a pointer to an `XVisualInfo` struct, in the visualInfo argument.

Ownership of the created QOpenGLContext is transferred to the caller.

### `[pure virtual]` GLXContext QGLXContext::nativeContext() const

Returns the underlying GLXContext.
