  • Article

Gets information about the features that are supported by the current graphics driver.

Syntax

HRESULT CheckFeatureSupport(
        D3D11_FEATURE Feature,
  [out] void          *pFeatureSupportData,
        UINT          FeatureSupportDataSize
);

Parameters

Feature

Type: D3D11_FEATURE

A member of the D3D11_FEATURE enumerated type that describes which feature to query for support.

[out] pFeatureSupportData

Type: void*

Upon completion of the method, the passed structure is filled with data that describes the feature support.

FeatureSupportDataSize

Type: UINT

The size of the structure passed to the pFeatureSupportData parameter.

Return value

Type: HRESULT

Returns S_OK if successful; otherwise, returns E_INVALIDARG if an unsupported data type is passed to the pFeatureSupportData parameter or a size mismatch is detected for the FeatureSupportDataSize parameter.

Remarks

To query for multi-threading support, pass the D3D11_FEATURE_THREADING value to the Feature parameter, pass the D3D11_FEATURE_DATA_THREADING structure to the pFeatureSupportData parameter, and pass the size of the D3D11_FEATURE_DATA_THREADING structure to the FeatureSupportDataSize parameter.

Calling CheckFeatureSupport with Feature set to D3D11_FEATURE_FORMAT_SUPPORT causes the method to return the same information that would be returned by ID3D11Device::CheckFormatSupport.
