<h2>Description</h2>

<p>

The variable <code class="varname">gl_Position</code> is intended for writing the homogeneous

vertex position. It can be written at any time during vertexshader execution. This value

will be used by primitive assembly, clipping, culling, and other fixed functionality

operations, if present, that operate on primitives after vertex processing has occurred.

Its value is undefined after the vertex processing stage if the vertex shader executable

does not write <code class="varname">gl_Position</code>.
