> cgGetNamedEffectAnnotation - get an effect annotation by name

> # SYNOPSIS

>       #include <Cg/cg.h>

>       CGannotation cgGetNamedEffectAnnotation( CGeffect effect,
>                                                const char * name );

> # PARAMETERS

> effect

>   The effect from which to retrieve the annotation.

> name

>   The name of the annotation to retrieve.

> # RETURN VALUES

> Returns the named annotation.

> Returns NULL if the effect has no annotation corresponding to name.

> # DESCRIPTION

> The annotations associated with an effect can be retrieved directly by name using cgGetNamedEffectAnnotation. The names of a effect's annotations can be discovered by iterating through the annotations (see cgGetFirstEffectAnnotation and cgGetNextAnnotation), calling cgGetAnnotationName for each one in turn.

> # EXAMPLES

>       /* fetch annotation "Apple" from CGeffect effect */
>       CGannotation ann = cgGetNamedEffectAnnotation( effect, "Apple" );

> # ERRORS

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

> CG_INVALID_POINTER_ERROR is generated if name is NULL.

> # HISTORY

> cgGetNamedEffectAnnotation was introduced in Cg 1.5.
