Example

The following code example shows how to determine whether a specific texture format is supported on a device.

' check support for a Format.A16B16R16F render target
If Not Microsoft.WindowsMobile.DirectX.Direct3D.Manager.CheckDeviceFormat(0, DeviceType.Default, Format.A1R5G5B5, Usage.RenderTarget, ResourceType.BackBuffer, Format.A1R5G5B5) Then
    MsgBox("Supported")
End If
// check support for a Format.A16B16R16F render target
if (!Microsoft.WindowsMobile.DirectX.Direct3D.Manager.CheckDeviceFormat(0, DeviceType.Default, Format.A1R5G5B5,
                                  Usage.RenderTarget, ResourceType.BackBuffer,
                                  Format.A1R5G5B5))
    MessageBox.Show("Supported");
