Gets the light collection on the current device, using fixed-point math.

Namespace:  Microsoft.WindowsMobile.DirectX.Direct3D
Assembly:  Microsoft.WindowsMobile.DirectX (in Microsoft.WindowsMobile.DirectX.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public ReadOnly Property LightsFixed As LightsFixedCollection
    Get
'Usage
Dim instance As Device
Dim value As LightsFixedCollection

value = instance.LightsFixed

public LightsFixedCollection LightsFixed { get; }

public:
property LightsFixedCollection^ LightsFixed {
    LightsFixedCollection^ get ();
}

member LightsFixed : LightsFixedCollection

Property Value

Type: Microsoft.WindowsMobile.DirectX.Direct3D.LightsFixedCollection
A LightFixed object.

Remarks

The .NET Compact Framework provides LightFixed for fixed-point math.

Examples

The following code example shows how to use LightFixed structures.

' This code example is from the 
' Direct3D Mobile Fixed Point Lighting Sample
' of the .NET Compact Framework Samples in the SDK.

' The FrameMove method is called once per frame, 
' and is the entry point for animating the scene.

    lightData = device.LightsFixed(2)

    ' Rotate through the various light types
    If Fix(appTime) Mod 20 < 10 Then
        device.LightsFixed(2).Type = LightType.Point
    Else
        device.LightsFixed(2).Type = LightType.Directional
    End If

    ' Make sure the light type is supported by the device.  If 
    ' VertexProcessingCaps.PositionAllLights is not set, the device
    ' does not support point or spot lights, so change light #2's
    ' type to a directional light.
