structwaffle_context
           An opaque type.

       waffle_context_create()
           Create a context for OpenGL rendering with the properties specified by config.

           The returned context's actual properties may differ from, but are guaranteed to be compatible with,
           the properties specified by config. See the section called “VERSION PROMOTION” below for details.

           If share_ctx is not null, then the newly created context is added to the share group of share_ctx.
           Some data, such as display lists, are shared among all contexts that belong to the same share group.
           For details on what data is shared, see the specification for the relevant native platform: the GLX1.4Specification[1], the EGL1.4Specification[2], or the CGLReference[3].

       waffle_context_destroy()
           Destroy the context and release its memory.

       waffle_context_get_native()
           Get the context's underlying native objects. Use free(3) to deallocate the returned pointer. See
           waffle_native(3) for the definition of unionwaffle_native_context.

       See waffle_error(3) for the complete list of waffle's error codes.

       No errors are specific to the waffle_context functions.

       Functions whose return type is bool return true on success and false on failure. Functions whose return
       type is a pointer return NULL on failure. Use waffle_error_get_info(3) to get information about any
       errors.

       The context's requested version and profile is given by the config attributes
       WAFFLE_CONTEXT_MAJOR_VERSION, WAFFLE_CONTEXT_MINOR_VERSION, WAFFLE_CONTEXT_PROFILE. The context returned
       by waffle_context_create may implement any version and profile that is backwards compatible with that
       requested, as described below.

       •   If the chosen API is WAFFLE_OPENGL_ES1, WAFFLE_OPENGL_ES2, or WAFFLE_OPENGL_ES3, then the returned
           context may implement any of:
               * The requested version.
               * Any later version, so long as no features have been from that later version.

       •   If the chosen API is WAFFLE_CONTEXT_OPENGL and version 3.0 or less is requested, then the returned
           context may implement any of:
               * Any version no less than that requested and no greater than 3.0.
               * Version 3.1, if the GL_ARB_compatibility extension is also implemented.
               * The compatibility profile of version 3.2 or greater.

       •   If the chosen API is WAFFLE_CONTEXT_OPENGL and version 3.1 is requested, then the returned context
           may implement any of:
               * Version 3.1, with or without the GL_ARB_compatibility extension.
               * The core profile of version 3.2 or greater.

       •   If the chosen API is WAFFLE_CONTEXT_OPENGL and version 3.2 or greater is requested, then the returned
           context may implement any of:
               * The requested profile and version.
               * The requested profile of any later version, so long as no features have been from that later
               version and profile.
