Remarks

Typically, methods that return state do not work on devices created using PureDevice. This method, however, is an exception because it returns an interface.

The device can support multiple render targets. The number of render targets supported by a device is contained in the Caps.NumberSimultaneousRts member.

Exceptions

InvalidCallException

The method call is invalid. For example, a method's parameter might contain an invalid value.

NotFoundException

No render target is available for the given index.
