Parameters

primitiveType
Type: Microsoft.WindowsMobile.DirectX.Direct3D.PrimitiveType
A member of the PrimitiveType enumerated type that describes the type of primitive to render. The PointList constant is not supported with this method.

baseVertex
Type: System.Int32
An offset from the start of the index buffer to the first vertex index.

minVertexIndex
Type: System.Int32
A minimum vertex index for vertices used during the call.

numVertices
Type: System.Int32
A number of vertices used during the call, starting from baseVertex to minVertexIndex.

startIndex
Type: System.Int32
The location in the index array at which to start reading vertices.

primCount
Type: System.Int32
A number of primitives to render. The number of vertices used is a function of the primCount and PrimitiveType parameters. To determine the maximum number of primitives allowed, check the MaxPrimitiveCount property member of the Caps structure.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
InvalidCallException	The method call is invalid. For example, a parameter might contain an invalid value.
