ID3DX11EffectVariable::AsSampler method

  • Article

Get a sampler variable.

Syntax

ID3DX11EffectSamplerVariable* AsSampler();

Parameters

This method has no parameters.

Return value

Type: ID3DX11EffectSamplerVariable*

A pointer to a sampler variable. See ID3DX11EffectSamplerVariable.

Remarks

AsSampler returns a version of the effect variable that has been specialized to a sampler variable. Similar to a cast, this specialization will return an invalid object if the effect variable does not contain sampler data.

Applications can test the returned object for validity by calling IsValid.

Note

The DirectX SDK does not supply any compiled binaries for effects. You must use Effects 11 source to build your effects-type application. For more information about using Effects 11 source, see Differences Between Effects 10 and Effects 11.
