D3DSTATEBLOCKTYPE Enumerated Type

Defines logical groups of device states.

Syntax

typedef enum _D3DSTATEBLOCKTYPE {
    D3DSBT_ALL = 1,
    D3DSBT_PIXELSTATE = 2,
    D3DSBT_VERTEXSTATE = 3,
    D3DSBT_FORCE_DWORD = 0xffffffff
} D3DSTATEBLOCKTYPE;

Constants

D3DSBT_ALL

Capture all of the current device state. This is all of the current vertex and pixel state as shown below.

D3DSBT_PIXELSTATE

Capture the current pixel-related device states including:

• Pixel Pipe Render States
• Pixel Shader States
• Pixel Shader Constant States
• Sampler States
• Sampler Stage States
• Texture States
• Texture Stage States

D3DSBT_VERTEXSTATE

Capture the current vertex-related device states including:

• Light States
• Vertex Pipe Render States
• Vertex Shader States
• Vertex Shader Constant States
• Transform States

D3DSBT_FORCE_DWORD

Forces this enumeration to compile to 32 bits in size. This value is not used.

Remarks

The D3DSBT_PIXELSTATE and D3DSBT_VERTEXSTATE values identify different logical groups of device states, though some states are common to both groups. The union of D3DSBT_PIXELSTATE and D3DSBT_VERTEXSTATE is not equal to D3DSBT_ALL. The D3DSBT_PIXELSTATE and D3DSBT_VERTEXSTATE values enable the capture of these frequently modified states between calls to IDirect3DDevice9::DrawPrimitive without incurring the performance penalty of capturing the entire state.
