DXGI_ADAPTER_DESC1 structure

Describes an adapter (or video card) using DXGI 1.1.

Syntax

typedef struct DXGI_ADAPTER_DESC1 {
  WCHAR  Description[128];
  UINT   VendorId;
  UINT   DeviceId;
  UINT   SubSysId;
  UINT   Revision;
  SIZE_T DedicatedVideoMemory;

  SIZE_T SharedSystemMemory;
  LUID   AdapterLuid;
  UINT   Flags;
} DXGI_ADAPTER_DESC1;

Members

Description

Type: WCHAR[128]

A string that contains the adapter description. On feature level 9 graphics hardware, GetDesc1 returns “Software Adapter” for the description string.

VendorId

Type: UINT

The PCI ID of the hardware vendor. On feature level 9 graphics hardware, GetDesc1 returns zeros for the PCI ID of the hardware vendor.

DeviceId

Type: UINT

The PCI ID of the hardware device. On feature level 9 graphics hardware, GetDesc1 returns zeros for the PCI ID of the hardware device.

SubSysId

Type: UINT

The PCI ID of the sub system. On feature level 9 graphics hardware, GetDesc1 returns zeros for the PCI ID of the sub system.

Revision

Type: UINT

The PCI ID of the revision number of the adapter. On feature level 9 graphics hardware, GetDesc1 returns zeros for the PCI ID of the revision number of the adapter.

DedicatedVideoMemory

Type: SIZE_T

The number of bytes of dedicated video memory that are not shared with the CPU.

DedicatedSystemMemory

Type: SIZE_T

The number of bytes of dedicated system memory that are not shared with the CPU. This memory is allocated from available system memory at boot time.

SharedSystemMemory

Type: SIZE_T

The number of bytes of shared system memory. This is the maximum value of system memory that may be consumed by the adapter during operation. Any incidental memory consumed by the driver as it manages and uses video memory is additional.

AdapterLuid

Type: LUID

A unique value that identifies the adapter. See LUID for a definition of the structure. LUID is defined in dxgi.h.

Flags

Type: UINT

A value of the DXGI_ADAPTER_FLAG enumerated type that describes the adapter type. The DXGI_ADAPTER_FLAG_REMOTE flag is reserved.

Remarks

The DXGI_ADAPTER_DESC1 structure provides a DXGI 1.1 description of an adapter. This structure is initialized by using the IDXGIAdapter1::GetDesc1 method.
