member Lock :
offsetToLock:int *
typeVertex:Type *
flags:LockFlags *
length:int -> Array
Parameters
- offsetToLock
Type: System.Int32
Offset into the vertex data to lock, in bytes. To lock the entire vertex buffer, specify 0 for both sizeToLock and offsetToLock.
- typeVertex
Type: System.Type
A Type that indicates the type of array data to return. This can be a value type or any type that contains only value types.
- flags
Type: Microsoft.WindowsMobile.DirectX.Direct3D.LockFlags
One or more LockFlags values that describe the type of lock to perform. The valid flags for this method are NoDirtyUpdate, NoOverwrite, and ReadOnly.
- length
Type: System.Int32
The size of the array to return. If length is 0, the entire buffer is locked and the array contains all the data in the buffer.
Return Value
Type: System.Array
An Array that represents the locked vertex buffer.
Exceptions
| Exception | Condition |
|---|---|
| InvalidCallException | The method call is invalid. For example, a method's parameter may contain an invalid value. |
Remarks
Note that the .NET Compact Framework does not support multiple lock calls.
When using this method to retrieve an array from a resource that was not created with a type, always use the overload that accepts a type.
The Discard and NoOverwrite values for LockFlags are valid only on buffers created with Dynamic specified for Usage.
