D3D11_UNORDERED_ACCESS_VIEW_DESC structure (d3d11.h)

Specifies the subresources from a resource that are accessible using an unordered-access view.

Syntax

typedef struct D3D11_UNORDERED_ACCESS_VIEW_DESC {
  DXGI_FORMAT         Format;
  D3D11_UAV_DIMENSION ViewDimension;
  union {
    D3D11_BUFFER_UAV      Buffer;
    D3D11_TEX1D_UAV       Texture1D;
    D3D11_TEX1D_ARRAY_UAV Texture1DArray;
    D3D11_TEX2D_UAV       Texture2D;
    D3D11_TEX2D_ARRAY_UAV Texture2DArray;
    D3D11_TEX3D_UAV       Texture3D;
  };
} D3D11_UNORDERED_ACCESS_VIEW_DESC;

Members

Format

Type: DXGI_FORMAT

The data format (see DXGI_FORMAT).

ViewDimension

Type: D3D11_UAV_DIMENSION

The resource type (see D3D11_UAV_DIMENSION), which specifies how the resource will be accessed.

Buffer

Type: D3D11_BUFFER_UAV

Specifies which buffer elements can be accessed (see D3D11_BUFFER_UAV).

Texture1D

Type: D3D11_TEX1D_UAV

Specifies the subresources in a 1D texture that can be accessed (see D3D11_TEX1D_UAV).

Texture1DArray

Type: D3D11_TEX1D_ARRAY_UAV

Specifies the subresources in a 1D texture array that can be accessed (see D3D11_TEX1D_ARRAY_UAV).

Texture2D

Type: D3D11_TEX2D_UAV

Specifies the subresources in a 2D texture that can be accessed (see D3D11_TEX2D_UAV).

Texture2DArray

Type: D3D11_TEX2D_ARRAY_UAV

Specifies the subresources in a 2D texture array that can be accessed (see D3D11_TEX2D_ARRAY_UAV).

Texture3D

Type: D3D11_TEX3D_UAV

Specifies subresources in a 3D texture that can be accessed (see D3D11_TEX3D_UAV).

Remarks

An unordered-access-view description is passed into ID3D11Device::CreateUnorderedAccessView to create a view.
