winrt.windows.graphics.directx.direct3d11.interop module¶

APIs for desktop interop with the Windows.Graphics.DirectX.Direct3D11 namespace.

create_direct3d11_device¶

create_direct3d11_device(*, driver_type=D3dDriverType.HARDWARE, flags=D3d11CreateDeviceFlag.BGRA_SUPPORT)

Creates a Direct3D 11 device on the default adapter, as the WinRT Direct3D 11 device that APIs such as Windows.Graphics.Capture take.

Returns: A Direct3D 11 device.

Return type: winrt.windows.graphics.directx.direct3d11.IDirect3DDevice

Raises:

• ValueError if driver_type is not a D3D_DRIVER_TYPE value or flags is negative.
• OverflowError if flags does not fit in 32 bits.
• OSError if the device cannot be created.

D3dDriverType¶

class D3dDriverType(enum.IntEnum)

The driver that create_direct3d11_device creates the device with: HARDWARE, REFERENCE, NULL or WARP. UNKNOWN and SOFTWARE are left out, since they need an adapter or a software rasterizer that the function does not take. REFERENCE needs the reference rasterizer, d3d11ref.dll, which only the Windows SDK installs.

D3d11CreateDeviceFlag¶

class D3d11CreateDeviceFlag(enum.IntFlag)

The flags that create_direct3d11_device creates the device with: SINGLE_THREADED, DEBUG, PREVENT_INTERNAL_THREADING_OPTIMIZATIONS, BGRA_SUPPORT, DEBUGGABLE, PREVENT_ALTERING_LAYER_SETTINGS_FROM_REGISTRY, DISABLE_GPU_TIMEOUT and VIDEO_SUPPORT. SWITCH_TO_REF is left out, since Direct3D 11 does not support it. DEBUG needs the debug layer, which the Graphics Tools optional feature of Windows installs.

create_direct3d11_device_from_dxgi_device¶

create_direct3d11_device_from_dxgi_device(dxgi_device, /)

Creates a WinRT Direct3D 11 device from a DXGI device.

Returns: A Direct3D 11 device.

Return type: winrt.windows.graphics.directx.direct3d11.IDirect3DDevice

Raises: OSError on failure.

create_direct3d11_surface_from_dxgi_surface¶

create_direct3d11_surface_from_dxgi_surface(dxgi_surface, /)

Creates a WinRT Direct3D 11 surface from a DXGI surface.

Returns: A Direct3D 11 surface.

Return type: winrt.windows.graphics.directx.direct3d11.IDirect3DSurface

Raises: OSError on failure.

get_dxgi_device_from_object¶

get_dxgi_device_from_object(device, /)

Retrieves the IDXGIDevice from a Direct3D object.

Returns: Pointer to IDXGIDevice interface of the WinRT object.

Return type: int

get_dxgi_surface_from_object¶

get_dxgi_surface_from_object(surface, /)

Retrieves the IDXGISurface from a Direct3D object.

Returns: Pointer to IDXGISurface interface of the WinRT object.

Return type: int
