IDirect3DDevice Interface

Definition

Namespace:

Windows.Graphics.DirectX.Direct3D11

This represents an IDXGIDevice, and can be used to interop between Windows Runtime components that need to exchange IDXGIDevice references.

Examples

// Create a new Windows Console Application (C++/WinRT) project, and
// replace the contents of `pch.h` and `main.cpp` source code files with the code below.
// Be aware that the code below omits the details of obtaining a WinRT Direct3DDevice in
// the first segment of code, and obtaining a native DirectX device in the second segment.
// The code shows only how to perform the conversion between the two.

// pch.h

Remarks

If you're using C++/WinRT, then to move back and forth between IDirect3DDevice and IDXGIDevice, use the IDirect3DDxgiInterfaceAccess::GetInterface and CreateDirect3D11DeviceFromDXGIDevice functions. You can see another code example in Composition native interoperation with DirectX and Direct2D.

If you're using C++/CX, then to move back and forth between IDirect3DDevice and IDXGIDevice, use the CreateDirect3DDevice and GetDXGIInterface(IDirect3DDevice^, DXGI_TYPE**) functions.

Methods

Dispose()	Performs application-defined tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged resources.
Trim()	Trims any graphics memory allocated by the graphics device on the app's behalf.
