Walkthrough: Creating Direct3D9 Content for Hosting in WPF

  • Article

This walkthrough shows how to create Direct3D9 content that is suitable for hosting in a Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) application.

In this walkthrough, you perform the following tasks:

  • Create a Direct3D9 project.

  • Configure the Direct3D9 project for hosting in a WPF application.

When you are finished, you will have a DLL that contains Direct3D9 content for use in a WPF application.

Note

The dialog boxes and menu commands you see might differ from those described in Help depending on your active settings or edition. To change your settings, choose Import and Export Settings on the Tools menu. For more information, see Visual Studio Settings.

Prerequisites

You need the following components to complete this walkthrough:

  • Visual Studio 2008 SP1.

  • DirectX SDK 9 or later.

Creating the Direct3D9 Project

The first step is to create and configure the Direct3D9 project.

To create the Direct3D9 project

  1. Create a new Win32 Project in C++ named D3DContent.

    The Win32 Application Wizard opens and displays the Welcome screen.

  2. Click Next.

    The Application Settings screen appears.

  3. In the Application type: section, select the DLL option.

  4. Click Finish.

    The D3DContent project is generated.

  5. In Solution Explorer, right-click the D3DContent project and select Properties.

    The D3DContent Property Pages dialog box opens.

  6. Select the C/C++ node.

  7. In the Additional Include Directories field, specify the location of the DirectX include folder. The default location for this folder is %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft DirectX SDK (version)\Include.

  8. Double-click the Linker node to expand it.

  9. In the Additional Library Directories field, specify the location of the DirectX libraries folder. The default location for this folder is %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft DirectX SDK (version)\Lib\x86.

  10. Select the Input node.

  11. In the Additional Dependencies field, add the d3d9.lib and d3dx9.lib files.

  12. In Solution Explorer, add a new module definition file (.def) named D3DContent.def to the project.

Creating the Direct3D9 Content

To get the best performance, your Direct3D9 content must use particular settings. The following code shows how to create a Direct3D9 surface that has the best performance characteristics. For more information, see Performance Considerations for Direct3D9 and WPF Interoperability.

To create the Direct3D9 content

  1. Using Solution Explorer, add three C++ classes to the project named the following.

    CRenderer (with virtual destructor)

    CRendererManager

    CTriangleRenderer

  2. Open Renderer.h in the Code Editor and replace the automatically generated code with the following code.

    #pragma once

class CRenderer
{
public:
    virtual ~CRenderer();

    HRESULT CheckDeviceState();
    HRESULT CreateSurface(UINT uWidth, UINT uHeight, bool fUseAlpha, UINT m_uNumSamples);

    virtual HRESULT Render() = 0;

    IDirect3DSurface9 *GetSurfaceNoRef() { return m_pd3dRTS; }

protected:
    CRenderer();

    virtual HRESULT Init(IDirect3D9 *pD3D, IDirect3D9Ex *pD3DEx, HWND hwnd, UINT uAdapter);

    IDirect3DDevice9   *m_pd3dDevice;
    IDirect3DDevice9Ex *m_pd3dDeviceEx;

    IDirect3DSurface9 *m_pd3dRTS;

};

  3. Open Renderer.cpp in the Code Editor and replace the automatically generated code with the following code.
