cg program
Author
I wanted to write a simple cg program that take a value double n from opengl program and add some numbers in to that and return back to opengl.
I know i have to use ....... cgGLSetParameter and cgGetNamedParameter.
Anyway it didn't work right.
need help
thank you

Cg doesnt work like that.
Cg operates on vertices and fragments, its final output is not to a variable but to a fragment which then ends up on the screen.
Now, you can do what you want todo but its a little more involved than what you were trying todo. You would have to write the shaders such that you processed the value you wanted and outputted it to a context and then either glCopyPixels() to retrive the value from the framebuffer or if you used a texture as a render target you could glGetTexImage() todo the same thing.

... and to add:
OpenGL and CG can't handle double values.
Every double is internally converted to float.
