Loads an XMSHORTN4 into an XMVECTOR.

Syntax

XMVECTOR XM_CALLCONV XMLoadShortN4(
  [in] const XMSHORTN4 *pSource
) noexcept;

Parameters

[in] pSource

Address of the XMSHORTN4 structure to load. This parameter must point to cached memory.

Return value

Returns an XMVECTOR loaded with the data from the pSource parameter.

Remarks

The following pseudocode demonstrates the operation of the function.

XMVECTOR vectorOut;

vectorOut.x = (float)pSource->x / 32767.0f;
vectorOut.y = (float)pSource->y / 32767.0f;
vectorOut.z = (float)pSource->z / 32767.0f;
vectorOut.w = (float)pSource->w / 32767.0f;

return vectorOut;

Note that both -32767 and -32768 map to -1.f.
