Detailed Description

Texture view interface.

To create a texture view, call ITexture::CreateView(). Texture view holds strong references to the texture. The texture will not be destroyed until all views are released. The texture view will also keep a strong reference to the texture sampler, if any is set.

Member Function Documentation

GetSampler()

virtual struct ISampler *DILIGENT_CALL_TYPE Diligent::ITextureView::GetSampler ( )

pure virtual

Returns the pointer to the sampler object set by the ITextureView::SetSampler().

The method does NOT increment the reference counter of the returned object, so Release() must not be called.

GetTexture()

virtual struct ITexture *DILIGENT_CALL_TYPE Diligent::ITextureView::GetTexture ( )

pure virtual

Returns a pointer to the referenced texture object.

The method does NOT increment the reference counter of the returned object, so Release() must not be called.

SetSampler()

virtual void DILIGENT_CALL_TYPE Diligent::ITextureView::SetSampler ( struct ISampler * pSampler )

pure virtual

Sets the texture sampler to use for filtering operations when accessing a texture from shaders. Only shader resource views can be assigned a sampler. The view will keep strong reference to the sampler.
