NOTE: The ID3DXPMesh and ID3DXSPMesh interfaces are now obsolete and will be removed in a future release.

ID3DXPMesh

Applications use the methods of the ID3DXPMesh interface to manipulate progressive mesh objects. A progressive mesh enables progressive refinement of the mesh object.

ID3DXPMesh Members

Method Description
ID3DXPMesh::ClonePMesh Clones a progressive mesh using a declarator.
ID3DXPMesh::ClonePMeshFVF Clones a progressive mesh using a flexible vertex format (FVF) code.
ID3DXPMesh::GenerateVertexHistory Generates an immediate ancestor for each vertex when it is removed by a vertex split. Allows generation of a geomorph.
ID3DXPMesh::GetAdjacency Returns the face adjacency array of the mesh.
ID3DXPMesh::GetMaxFaces Retrieves the maximum number of faces that the progressive mesh supports.
ID3DXPMesh::GetMaxVertices Retrieves the maximum number of vertices that the progressive mesh supports.
ID3DXPMesh::GetMinFaces Retrieves the minimum number of faces that the progressive mesh supports.
ID3DXPMesh::GetMinVertices Retrieves the minimum number of vertices that the progressive mesh supports.
ID3DXPMesh::Optimize Generates an output mesh with reordered faces and vertices to optimize performance.
ID3DXPMesh::OptimizeBaseLOD Optimizes the base level of detail (LOD) part of an ID3DXPMesh object.
ID3DXPMesh::Save Saves the progressive mesh to the specified stream object.
ID3DXPMesh::SetNumFaces Sets the current level of detail to as close to the specified number of faces as possible.
ID3DXPMesh::SetNumVertices Sets the current level of detail to as close to the specified number of vertices as possible.
ID3DXPMesh::TrimByFaces Modifies the minimum and maximum level of detail (LOD) of an ID3DXPMesh object.
ID3DXPMesh::TrimByVertices Modifies the minimum and maximum level of detail (LOD) of an ID3DXPMesh object.

Remarks

To obtain the ID3DXPMesh interface, call the D3DXGeneratePMesh function. Or, create a progressive mesh with D3DXCreatePMeshFromStream.

This interface inherits additional functionality from the ID3DXBaseMesh interface.

The LPD3DXPMESH type is defined as a pointer to the ID3DXPMesh interface, as shown below.

typedef struct ID3DXPMesh *LPD3DXPMESH;
