NAME
    cgGetNamedEffectParameter - get an effect parameter by name

SYNOPSIS
      #include <Cg/cg.h>

      CGparameter cgGetNamedEffectParameter( CGeffect effect,
                                             const char * name );

PARAMETERS
    effect  The effect from which to retrieve the parameter.

    name    The name of the parameter to retrieve.

RETURN VALUES
    Returns the named parameter from the effect.

    Returns NULL if the effect has no parameter corresponding to name.

DESCRIPTION
    The parameters of a effect can be retrieved directly by name using
    cgGetNamedEffectParameter. The names of the parameters in a effect can
    be discovered by iterating through the effect's parameters (see the
    cgGetFirstEffectParameter manpage and the cgGetNextEffectParameter
    manpage), calling the cgGetParameterName manpage for each one in turn.

    The given name may be of the form "foo.bar[2]", which retrieves the
    second element of the array "bar" in a structure named "foo".

EXAMPLES
    *to-be-written*

ERRORS
    CG_INVALID_EFFECT_HANDLE_ERROR is generated if effect is not a valid
    effect.

HISTORY
    cgGetNamedEffectParameter was introduced in Cg 1.4.
