Loads a volume from a file in memory.

Syntax

HRESULT D3DXLoadVolumeFromFileInMemory(
  _In_       LPDIRECT3DVOLUME9 pDestVolume,
  _In_ const PALETTEENTRY      *pDestPalette,
  _In_ const D3DBOX            *pDestBox,
  _In_       LPCVOID           pSrcData,
  _In_       UINT              SrcDataSize,
  _In_ const D3DBOX            *pSrcBox,
  _In_       DWORD             Filter,
  _In_       D3DCOLOR          ColorKey,
  _In_       D3DXIMAGE_INFO    *pSrcInfo
);

Parameters

pDestVolume [in]

Type: LPDIRECT3DVOLUME9

Pointer to an IDirect3DVolume9 interface. Specifies the destination volume.

pDestPalette [in]

Type: const PALETTEENTRY*

Pointer to a PALETTEENTRY structure, the destination palette of 256 colors or NULL.

pDestBox [in]

Type: const D3DBOX*

Pointer to a D3DBOX structure. Specifies the destination box. Set this parameter to NULL to specify the entire volume.

pSrcData [in]

Type: LPCVOID

Pointer to the file in memory from which to load the volume.

SrcDataSize [in]

Type: UINT

Size in bytes of the file in memory.

pSrcBox [in]

Type: const D3DBOX*

Pointer to a D3DBOX structure. Specifies the source box. Set this parameter to NULL to specify the entire volume.

Filter [in]

Type: DWORD

Combination of one or more D3DX_FILTER, controlling how the image is filtered. Specifying D3DX_DEFAULT for this parameter is the equivalent of specifying D3DX_FILTER_TRIANGLE | D3DX_FILTER_DITHER.

ColorKey [in]

Type: D3DCOLOR

D3DCOLOR value to replace with transparent black, or 0 to disable the colorkey. This is always a 32-bit ARGB color, independent of the source image format. Alpha is significant and should usually be set to FF for opaque color keys. Thus, for opaque black, the value would be equal to 0xFF000000.

pSrcInfo [in]

Type: D3DXIMAGE_INFO*

Pointer to a D3DXIMAGE_INFO structure to be filled with a description of the data in the source image file, or NULL.

Return value

Type: HRESULT

If the function succeeds, the return value is D3D_OK. If the function fails, the return value can be one of the following: D3DERR_INVALIDCALL, D3DXERR_INVALIDDATA.

Remarks

This function handles conversion to and from compressed texture formats and supports the following file formats: .bmp, .dds, .dib, .hdr, .jpg, .pfm, .png, .ppm, and .tga. See D3DXIMAGE_FILEFORMAT.

Writing to a non-level-zero surface of the volume texture will not cause the dirty rectangle to be updated. If D3DXLoadVolumeFromFileInMemory is called and the texture was not already dirty (this is unlikely under normal usage scenarios), the application needs to explicitly call IDirect3DVolumeTexture9::AddDirtyBox on the volume texture.
