# glutEntryFunc(3x)

sets the mouse enter/leave callback for the current window.

## NAME

glutEntryFunc - sets the mouse enter/leave callback for the current window.

## SYNTAX

```

```

void glutEntryFunc(void (\*func)(int state));

## ARGUMENTS

- *func*

  The new entry callback function.

## DESCRIPTION

glutEntryFunc sets the mouse enter/leave callback for the current window. The state callback parameter is either GLUT\_LEFT or GLUT\_ENTERED depending on if the mouse pointer has last left or entered the window.

Passing NULL to glutEntryFunc disables the generation of the mouse enter/leave callback.

Some window systems may not generate accurate enter/leave callbacks.  X IMPLEMENTATION NOTES An X implementation of GLUT should generate accurate enter/leave callbacks.
