ID3D10EffectTechnique interface (d3d10effect.h)

An ID3D10EffectTechnique interface is a collection of passes.

The lifetime of an ID3D10EffectTechnique object is equal to the lifetime of its parent ID3D10Effect object.

Method	Description
ComputeStateBlockMask	Compute a state-block mask to allow/prevent state changes.
GetAnnotationByIndex	Get an annotation by index.
GetAnnotationByName	Get an annotation by name.
GetDesc	Get a technique description.
GetPassByIndex	Get a pass by index.
GetPassByName	Get a pass by name.
IsValid	Test a technique to see if it contains valid syntax.

Methods

The ID3D10EffectTechnique interface has these methods.


ID3D10EffectTechnique::ComputeStateBlockMask Compute a state-block mask to allow/prevent state changes.
ID3D10EffectTechnique::GetAnnotationByIndex The ID3D10EffectTechnique::GetAnnotationByIndex (d3d10effect.h) method gets an annotation by index.
ID3D10EffectTechnique::GetAnnotationByName Get an annotation by name. (ID3D10EffectTechnique.GetAnnotationByName)
ID3D10EffectTechnique::GetDesc Get a technique description.
ID3D10EffectTechnique::GetPassByIndex Get a pass by index.
ID3D10EffectTechnique::GetPassByName Get a pass by name.
ID3D10EffectTechnique::IsValid Test a technique to see if it contains valid syntax.

An effect contains one or more techniques; each technique contains one or more passes; each pass contains state assignments (see Organizing State in an Effect (Direct3D 10)). The syntax for creating a technique is shown in Effect Technique Syntax (Direct3D 10).

To get an effect-technique interface, call a method like ID3D10Effect::GetTechniqueByName.
