D3D11DDI_3DPIPELINESUPPORT_CAPS structure (d3d10umddi.h)

The D3D11DDI_3DPIPELINESUPPORT_CAPS structure contains display device pipeline capabilities.

Syntax

typedef struct D3D11DDI_3DPIPELINESUPPORT_CAPS {
  [in] UINT Caps;
} D3D11DDI_3DPIPELINESUPPORT_CAPS;

Members

[in] Caps

A value that identifies the pipeline capabilities of the driver.

Remarks

The driver uses the one of the values from the D3D11DDI_3DPIPELINELEVEL enumeration and the following macro to encode the 3-D pipeline level:

#define D3D11DDI_ENCODE_3DPIPELINESUPPORT_CAP( Level ) (0x1 << Level)

The driver then uses the macro's result in the Caps member of the D3D11DDI_3DPIPELINESUPPORT_CAPS structure to provide information to the Direct3D runtime when the runtime calls the driver's GetCaps(D3D10_2) function with the Type member of D3D10_2DDIARG_GETCAPS set to D3D11DDICAPS_3DPIPELINESUPPORT.

The driver uses the following constant and macros to extract one of the values from the D3D11DDI_3DPIPELINELEVEL enumeration that represents the 3-D pipeline level to set for a display device. The driver extracts the value from the Caps member of the D3D11DDI_3DPIPELINESUPPORT_CAPS structure. The driver uses the 3-D pipeline level to create the appropriate display device when the driver receives a call to its CreateDevice(D3D10) function.

#define D3D11DDI_CREATEDEVICE_FLAG_3DPIPELINESUPPORT_SHIFT (0x1)
#define D3D11DDI_CREATEDEVICE_FLAG_3DPIPELINESUPPORT_MASK (0x7 << D3D11DDI_CREATEDEVICE_FLAG_3DPIPELINESUPPORT_SHIFT)
#define D3D11DDI_EXTRACT_3DPIPELINELEVEL_FROM_FLAGS( Flags ) \
    ((D3D11DDI_3DPIPELINELEVEL)(((Flags) & D3D11DDI_CREATEDEVICE_FLAG_3DPIPELINESUPPORT_MASK) >> \
    D3D11DDI_CREATEDEVICE_FLAG_3DPIPELINESUPPORT_SHIFT))
