glGenTextures - generate texture names 
 
void glGenTextures(
GLsizei n, 
    GLuint *textures )
 
- n 
- Specifies the number of texture names to be generated. 
- textures
- Specifies an array in which the generated texture names are stored. 
glGenTextures
returns n texture names in textures. There is no guarantee that the names
form a contiguous set of integers; however, it is guaranteed that none
of the returned names was in use immediately before the call to glGenTextures.
The generated textures have no dimensionality; they assume the dimensionality
of the texture target to which they are first bound (see glBindTexture).
Texture names returned by a call to glGenTextures are not returned by subsequent
calls, unless they are first deleted with glDeleteTextures. 
glGenTextures
is available only if the GL version is 1.1 or greater. 
GL_INVALID_VALUE
is generated if n is negative. 
GL_INVALID_OPERATION is generated if glGenTextures
is executed between the execution of glBegin and the corresponding execution
of glEnd.
