XMHALF2 structure

A 2D vector consisting of two half-precision (16bit) floating-point values.

For a list of additional functionality such as constructors and operators that are available using XMHALF2 when you are programming in C++, see XMHALF2 Extensions.

Note See DirectXMath Library Type Equivalences for information about equivalent D3DDECLTYPE, D3DFORMAT, and DXGI_FORMAT objects.

Syntax

C++


struct XMHALF2 {
  HALF x;
  HALF y;
};

Members

x: HALF value describing the x-coordinate.
y: HALF value describing the y-coordinate.

Remarks

The definition of the HALF type used under DirectXMath is consistent with the IEEE standard, and consists of a sign bit, a 5 bit biased exponent, and a 10 bit mantissa:



                    [15] SEEEEEMMMMMMMMMM [0]

XMHALF2 can be loaded into instances of XMVECTOR by using XMLoadHalf2.

Instances of XMVECTOR can be stored into an instance of XMHALF2 with XMStoreHalf2.

Namespace: Use DirectX::PackedVector
