ID3D11ClassLinkage interface (d3d11.h)

This interface encapsulates an HLSL dynamic linkage.

Inheritance

The ID3D11ClassLinkage interface inherits from ID3D11DeviceChild. ID3D11ClassLinkage also has these types of members:

Methods

The ID3D11ClassLinkage interface has these methods.

 
ID3D11ClassLinkage::CreateClassInstance

Initializes a class-instance object that represents an HLSL class instance.
ID3D11ClassLinkage::GetClassInstance

Gets the class-instance object that represents the specified HLSL class.

Remarks

A class linkage object can hold up to 64K gotten instances. A gotten instance is a handle that references a variable name in any shader that is created with that linkage object. When you create a shader with a class linkage object, the runtime gathers these instances and stores them in the class linkage object. For more information about how a class linkage object is used, see Storing Variables and Types for Shaders to Share.

An ID3D11ClassLinkage object is created using the ID3D11Device::CreateClassLinkage method.
