ID3D10EffectPass interface (d3d10effect.h)

A pass interface encapsulates state assignments within a technique.

The lifetime of an ID3D10EffectPass object is equal to the lifetime of its parent ID3D10Effect object.

Method	Description
Apply	Set the state contained in a pass to the device.
ComputeStateBlockMask	Generate a mask for allowing/preventing state changes.
GetAnnotationByIndex	Get an annotation by index.
GetAnnotationByName	Get an annotation by name.
GetDesc	Get a pass description.
GetGeometryShaderDesc	Get a geometry-shader description.
GetPixelShaderDesc	Get a pixel-shader description.
GetVertexShaderDesc	Get a vertex-shader description.
IsValid	Test a pass to see if it contains valid syntax.

Methods

The ID3D10EffectPass interface has these methods.

ID3D10EffectPass::Apply Set the state contained in a pass to the device.
ID3D10EffectPass::ComputeStateBlockMask Generate a mask for allowing/preventing state changes.
ID3D10EffectPass::GetAnnotationByIndex The ID3D10EffectPass::GetAnnotationByIndex (d3d10effect.h) method gets an annotation by index.
ID3D10EffectPass::GetAnnotationByName Get an annotation by name. (ID3D10EffectPass.GetAnnotationByName)
ID3D10EffectPass::GetDesc Get a pass description.
ID3D10EffectPass::GetGeometryShaderDesc Get a geometry-shader description.
ID3D10EffectPass::GetPixelShaderDesc Get a pixel-shader description.
ID3D10EffectPass::GetVertexShaderDesc Get a vertex-shader description.
ID3D10EffectPass::IsValid Test a pass to see if it contains valid syntax.

Remarks

A pass is a block of code that sets render-state objects and shaders. A pass is declared within a technique; the syntax for a technique is shown in Effect Technique Syntax (Direct3D 10).

To get an effect-pass interface, call a method like ID3D10EffectTechnique::GetPassByName.
