XMMax template

Compares two numeric data type instances, or two instances of an object which supports an overload of <, and returns the larger one of the two instances. The data type of the arguments and the return value is the same.

Syntax

template<class T> T XMMax(
  [in]  T a,
  [in]  T b
);

Parameters

a

[in] Specifies the first of two objects.

b

[in] Specifies the two of two objects.

Return Value

Returns the larger of the two input objects.

Remarks

XMMax is a template and the T type is specified when the template is instantiated.

Note

The XMMax template is new for DirectXMath and is not available for XNAMath 2.x. XMMax is available as a macro in XNAMath 2.x.

 

Note

Ideally use std::max instead of XMMax. To avoid conflicts with Windows headers with std::max, you need to #define NOMINMAX before you include Windows headers.
