    <em class="parameter"><code>params</code></em> the value(s) of the specified
    uniform variable. The type of the uniform variable specified by
    <em class="parameter"><code>location</code></em> determines the number of values
    returned. If the uniform variable is defined in the shader as a
    boolean, int, or float, a single value will be returned. If it
    is defined as a vec2, ivec2, or bvec2, two values will be
    returned. If it is defined as a vec3, ivec3, or bvec3, three
    values will be returned, and so on. To query values stored in
    uniform variables declared as arrays, call
    <code class="function">glGetUniform</code> for each element of the array.
    To query values stored in uniform variables declared as
    structures, call <code class="function">glGetUniform</code> for each
    field in the structure. The values for uniform variables
    declared as a matrix will be returned in column major
    order.</p><p>The locations assigned to uniform variables are not known
    until the program object is linked. After linking has occurred,
    the command
    <a class="citerefentry" href="glGetUniformLocation.xml"><span class="citerefentry"><span class="refentrytitle">glGetUniformLocation</span></span></a>
    can be used to obtain the location of a uniform variable. This
    location value can then be passed to
    <code class="function">glGetUniform</code> in order to query the current
    value of the uniform variable. After a program object has been
    linked successfully, the index values for uniform variables
    remain fixed until the next link command occurs. The uniform
    variable values can only be queried after a link if the link was
    successful.</p></div><div class="refsect1"><a id="notes"></a><h2>Notes</h2><p>If an error is generated, no change is made to the
