D3D11_BUFFER_RTV Structure (d3d11)

D3D11_BUFFER_RTV Structure

Namespace: d3d11

Defines the properties of a buffer resource that can be used as a render-target view.

Syntax


struct D3D11_BUFFER_RTV {
  D3D11_BUFFER_RTV_DIMENSION  BufferType;
  union {
    UINT                       ElementOffset;
    UINT                       FirstElement;
  };
  union {
    UINT                       ElementWidth;
    UINT                       NumElements;
  };
};

Members

The D3D11_BUFFER_RTV structure has the following members:

BufferType

Type: D3D11_BUFFER_RTV_DIMENSION

A D3D11_BUFFER_RTV_DIMENSION-typed value that specifies how to access the buffer.

ElementOffset

Type: UINT

The starting offset (in bytes) of the buffer. The offset must be a multiple of the element size.

FirstElement

Type: UINT

The starting element (for 1D buffers).

ElementWidth

Type: UINT

The width of the buffer (for 1D buffers).

NumElements

Type: UINT

The number of elements in the buffer (for 1D buffers).

Remarks

The D3D11_BUFFER_RTV structure is used by the CreateRenderTargetView function to create a render-target view of a buffer.

The union members ElementOffset and FirstElement, and ElementWidth and NumElements, are used depending on the value of BufferType.

If BufferType is D3D11_BUFFER_RTV_DIMENSION_UNKNOWN, use ElementOffset and ElementWidth.
If BufferType is D3D11_BUFFER_RTV_DIMENSION_BUFFER, use FirstElement and NumElements.
