   .. classmethod:: new(context: ~gi.repository.Gdk.GLContext, id: int, width: int, height: int, destroy: ~typing.Callable[[None], None], data: None) -> ~gi.repository.Gdk.GLTexture

      Creates a new texture for an existing GL texture.

      Note that the GL texture must not be modified until ``destroy`` is called,
      which will happen when the GdkTexture object is finalized, or due to
      an explicit call of :obj:`~gi.repository.Gdk.GLTexture.release`.






      .. deprecated:: 4.12

         :obj:`~gi.repository.Gdk.GLTextureBuilder` supersedes this function
         and provides extended functionality for creating GL textures.




      :param context: a ``GdkGLContext``


      :param id: the ID of a texture that was created with ``context``


      :param width: the nominal width of the texture


      :param height: the nominal height of the texture


      :param destroy: a destroy notify that will be called when the GL resources
         are released


      :param data: data that gets passed to ``destroy``









Methods
-------

.. rst-class:: interim-class

.. class:: GLTexture
   :no-index:


   .. method:: release() -> None

      Releases the GL resources held by a ``GdkGLTexture``.

      The texture contents are still available via the
      :obj:`~gi.repository.Gdk.Texture.download` function, after this
      function has been called.
