DXGK_VIDPNTOPOLOGY_INTERFACE::pfnReleasePathInfo routine

The pfnReleasePathInfo function releases a D3DKMDT_VIDPN_PRESENT_PATH structure that the VidPN manager previously provided to the display miniport driver.

Syntax

C++


DXGKDDI_VIDPNTOPOLOGY_RELEASEPATHINFO pfnReleasePathInfo;

NTSTATUS APIENTRY pfnReleasePathInfo(
  _In_  const D3DKMDT_HVIDPNTOPOLOGY hVidPnTopology,
  _In_  const D3DKMDT_VIDPN_PRESENT_PATH CONST *pVidPnPresentPathInfo
)
{ ... }

Parameters

hVidPnTopology [in]: [in] A handle to a VidPN topology object. The display miniport driver previously obtained this handle by calling the pfnGetTopology function of the DXGK_VIDPN_INTERFACE interface.
pVidPnPresentPathInfo [in]: [in] A pointer to the D3DKMDT_VIDPN_PRESENT_PATH structure that is to be released.

Return value

The pfnReleasePathInfo function returns one of the following values:

Return code	Description
STATUS_SUCCESS	The function succeeded.
STATUS_GRAPHICS_INVALID_VIDPN_TOPOLOGY	The handle supplied in hVidPnTopology was invalid.
STATUS_GRAPHICS_INVALID_VIDPN_PRESENT_PATH	The pointer supplied in pVidPnPresentPathInfo was invalid.

Remarks

When you have finished using a D3DKMDT_VIDPN_PRESENT_PATH structure that you obtained by calling any of the following functions, you must release the structure by calling pfnReleasePathInfo.

If you obtain a D3DKMDT_VIDPN_PRESENT_PATH structure by calling pfnCreateNewPathInfo and then pass that structure to pfnAddPath, you do not need to release the structure.

If you obtain a handle by calling pfnCreateNewPathInfo and then you decide not to add the new path to a topology, you must release the newly created structire by calling pfnReleasePathInfo.

The D3DKMDT_HVIDPNTOPOLOGY data type is defined in D3dkmdt.h.
