Detailed Description

Function Documentation

HRESULT D3DCreate	(	HWND	hWnd,
		DWORD	dwWidth,
		DWORD	dwHeight,
		CVD3D &	d3d
	)

This function creates a Direct3D object for the given window.

dwWidth and dwHeight specify the maximum image size that can be created in the context of this object.

Attention: Make sure that the lifetime of the window exceeds the lifetime of the object being created by this call. Reference counting is implemented using the ShareObject and ReleaseObject functions of the Image Manager. To finally free the object use ReleaseObject.

Parameters

[in]	hWnd	The window handle.
[in]	dwWidth	The maximum width of an image that can be created.
[in]	dwHeight	The maximum height of an image that can be created.
[out]	d3d	Newly created CVD3D object.

Returns: 0 if no error occurred, otherwise a value != 0 indicates the error code.

HRESULT D3DGetAvailableTextureMemory	(	CVD3D	d3d,
		UINT &	AvailableMemory
	)

This function returns the amount of available physical memory of the GPU card in MByte.

Attention: It might be possible to create even more textures, but in this case the textures will be held in system memory which will slow down rendering.

Parameters

[in]	d3d	The D3D context.
[out]	AvailableMemory	Amount of available video memory in MByte.

Returns: 0 if no error occurred, otherwise a value != 0 indicates the error code.

HRESULT D3DGetProjectionType	(	CVD3D	d3d,
		TProjectionType &	ProjType
	)

This function returns the current projection type used to render images.

Refer to the Glossary to learn more about projection types.

Parameters

[in]	d3d	The D3D context.
[out]	ProjType	Current projection type. See TProjectionType for possible values.

Returns: 0 if no error occurred, otherwise a value != 0 indicates the error code.

		float &	fRotY,
		float &	fRotZ,
		float &	fTransX,
		float &	fTransY,
		float &	fTransZ
	)

This function returns the world view used to render images defined by a previous call to D3DSetWorldView.

Attention: To use this functions you have to make sure that the projection type is set to TPT_PERSPECTIVE.

Parameters

[in]	d3d	The D3D context.
[out]	fRotX	The rotation around the x-axis. The rotation is given in the range of 0 degree to 360 degrees.
[out]	fRotY	The rotation around the y-axis. The rotation is given in the range of 0 degree to 360 degrees.
[out]	fRotZ	The rotation around the z-axis. The rotation is given in the range of 0 degree to 360 degrees.
[out]	fTransX	The translation of the x-axis. A value of `1` corresponds to a shift of max(ImageWidth, ImageHeight)/2 e.g., to the right.
[out]	fTransY	The translation of the y-axis. A value of `1` corresponds to a shift of max(ImageWidth, ImageHeight)/2 e.g., to the right.
[out]	fTransZ	The translation of the z-axis. A value of `1` corresponds to a shift of max(ImageWidth, ImageHeight)/2 e.g., to the right.

Returns: 0 if no error occurred, otherwise a value != 0 indicates the error code.
