            <function>glDebugMessageCallback</function> sets the current debug output callback function to
            the function whose address is given in <parameter>callback</parameter>. The callback function
            should have the following prototype (in C), or be otherwise compatible with such a prototype:

<programlisting>        typedef void (APIENTRY *DEBUGPROC)(GLenum source,

        <para>
            This function is defined to have the same calling convention as
            the GL API functions. In most cases this is defined as
            <code>APIENTRY</code>, although it will vary depending on
            platform, language and compiler.

        <para>
            When the GL is in use remotely, the server may not be able to
            call functions in the client's address space. In such cases, the
            callback function may not be invoked and the user should
            retrieve debug messages from the context's debug message log by
            calling
            <citerefentry><refentrytitle>glGetDebugMessageLog</refentrytitle></citerefentry>.
