Syntax

HRESULT Link(
  [in]            ID3D11ModuleInstance *pEntry,
  [in]            LPCSTR               pEntryName,
  [in]            LPCSTR               pTargetName,
  [in]            UINT                 uFlags,
  [out]           ID3DBlob             **ppShaderBlob,
  [out, optional] ID3DBlob             **ppErrorBuffer
);

Parameters

[in] pEntry

Type: ID3D11ModuleInstance*

A pointer to the ID3D11ModuleInstance interface for the shader module instance to link from.

[in] pEntryName

Type: LPCSTR

The name of the shader module instance to link from.

[in] pTargetName

Type: LPCSTR

The name for the shader blob that is produced.

[in] uFlags

Type: UINT

[out] ppShaderBlob

Type: ID3DBlob**

A pointer to a variable that receives a pointer to the ID3DBlob interface that you can use to access the compiled shader code.

[out, optional] ppErrorBuffer

Type: ID3DBlob**

A pointer to a variable that receives a pointer to the ID3DBlob interface that you can use to access compiler error messages.
