gluLoadSamplingMatrices - load NURBS sampling and culling matrices
 
void gluLoadSamplingMatrices( GLUnurbs* nurb, 
    const GLfloat *model,
    const GLfloat *perspective,
    const GLint *view )
 eqn not supported
- nurb 
- Specifies the NURBS object (created with
gluNewNurbsRenderer). 
- model 
- Specifies a modelview matrix (as from a glGetFloatv
call). 
- perspective 
- Specifies a projection matrix (as from a glGetFloatv
call). 
- view 
- Specifies a viewport (as from a glGetIntegerv call). 
gluLoadSamplingMatrices
uses model, perspective, and view to recompute the sampling and culling
 matrices stored in nurb. The sampling matrix determines how finely a NURBS
curve or surface must be tessellated to satisfy the sampling tolerance
(as determined by the GLU_SAMPLING_TOLERANCE property). The culling matrix
is used in deciding if a NURBS curve or surface should be culled before
 rendering (when the GLU_CULLING property is turned on).
gluLoadSamplingMatrices
is necessary only if the GLU_AUTO_LOAD_MATRIX property is turned off (see
gluNurbsProperty). Although it can be convenient to leave the GLU_AUTO_LOAD_MATRIX
property turned on, there can be a performance penalty for doing so. (A
round trip to the GL server is needed to fetch the current values of the
modelview matrix, projection matrix, and viewport.)
