  • Article

Verifies that all contents of this texture are present and correct.

Namespace: Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Content.Pipeline.Graphics
Assembly: Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Content.Pipeline (in microsoft.xna.framework.content.pipeline.dll)

Syntax

protected void Validate (
         bool facesMustHaveSameMipCount
)

Parameters

  • facesMustHaveSameMipCount
    Result of the validation.

Remarks

Validation is based on the following rules.

  • One image face must be present.
  • The mipmap chain for each face contains at least one bitmap.
  • All bitmaps share the same type.
  • Each face is the same size.
  • Each face contains the same number of mipmaps.
  • Each mipmap must be half the size of the previous. If the root bitmap is not square, the smaller axis is rounded up to 1 for the last few mipmaps before both dimensions reach zero.

Derived validation methods could add more validation rules. For example, cube maps must be square.

Exceptions
