ID3D11Device::CreateSamplerState method (d3d11.h)

Create a sampler-state object that encapsulates sampling information for a texture.

Syntax

HRESULT CreateSamplerState(
  [in]            const D3D11_SAMPLER_DESC *pSamplerDesc,
  [out, optional] ID3D11SamplerState       **ppSamplerState
);

Parameters

[in] pSamplerDesc

Type: const D3D11_SAMPLER_DESC*

Pointer to a sampler state description (see D3D11_SAMPLER_DESC).

[out, optional] ppSamplerState

Type: ID3D11SamplerState**

Address of a pointer to the sampler state object created (see ID3D11SamplerState).

Return value

Type: HRESULT

This method returns one of the following Direct3D 11 Return Codes.

Remarks

4096 unique sampler state objects can be created on a device at a time.

If an application attempts to create a sampler-state interface with the same state as an existing interface, the same interface will be returned and the total number of unique sampler state objects will stay the same.
