D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE enumeration

Defines constants that describe the type of back buffer.

Syntax

typedef enum D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE { 
  D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE_MONO         = 0,
  D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE_LEFT         = 1,
  D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE_RIGHT        = 2,
  D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE_FORCE_DWORD  = 0x7fffffff
} D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE, *LPD3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE;

Constants

D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE_MONO

Specifies a nonstereo swap chain.

D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE_LEFT

Specifies the left side of a stereo pair in a swap chain.

D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE_RIGHT

Specifies the right side of a stereo pair in a swap chain.

D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE_FORCE_DWORD

Forces this enumeration to compile to 32 bits in size. Without this value, some compilers would allow this enumeration to compile to a size other than 32 bits. This value is not used.

Remarks

Direct3D 9 does not support stereo view, so Direct3D does not use the D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE_LEFT and D3DBACKBUFFER_TYPE_RIGHT values of this enumerated type.
