D3D10_EFFECT_TYPE_DESC structure (d3d10effect.h)

Describes an effect-variable type.

Syntax

typedef struct _D3D10_EFFECT_TYPE_DESC {
  LPCSTR                      TypeName;
  D3D10_SHADER_VARIABLE_CLASS Class;
  D3D10_SHADER_VARIABLE_TYPE  Type;
  UINT                        Elements;
  UINT                        Members;
  UINT                        Rows;
  UINT                        Columns;
  UINT                        PackedSize;
  UINT                        UnpackedSize;
  UINT                        Stride;

Members

TypeName

Type: LPCSTR

A string that contains the variable name.

Class

Type: D3D10_SHADER_VARIABLE_CLASS

The variable class (see D3D10_SHADER_VARIABLE_CLASS).

Type

Type: D3D10_SHADER_VARIABLE_TYPE

The variable type (see D3D10_SHADER_VARIABLE_TYPE).

Elements

Type: UINT

The number of elements if the variable is an array; otherwise 0.

Members

Type: UINT

The number of members if the variable is a structure; otherwise 0.

Rows

Type: UINT

The number of rows if the variable is a matrix; otherwise 0.

Columns

Type: UINT

The number of columns if the variable is a matrix; otherwise 0.

PackedSize

Type: UINT

The number of bytes that the variable consumes when it is packed tightly by the compiler.

UnpackedSize

Type: UINT

The number of bytes that the variable consumes before it is packed by the compiler.

Stride

Type: UINT

The number of bytes between elements.

Remarks

To get an effect-variable type, call ID3D10EffectType::GetDesc.
