D3D_PRIMITIVE enumeration (d3dcommon.h)

2022-01-31

Indicates how the pipeline interprets geometry or hull shader input primitives.

Note

For programming with Direct3D 10, this API has a type alias that begins D3D10_ instead of D3D_. These Direct3D 10 type aliases are defined in d3d10.h, d3d10misc.h, and d3d10shader.h.

Remarks

The ID3D11ShaderReflection::GetGSInputPrimitive method returns a D3D11_PRIMITIVE-typed value.

The D3D11_PRIMITIVE enumeration is type defined in the D3D11.h header file as a D3D_PRIMITIVE enumeration, which is fully defined in the D3DCommon.h header file.

typedef D3D_PRIMITIVE D3D11_PRIMITIVE;
