[in] Pointer to an ID3DXBaseMesh interface, representing the mesh to convert to a strip.

AttribId

[in] Attribute ID of the mesh subset to convert to strips.

IBOptions

[in] Combination of one or more flags from the D3DXMESH enumeration, specifying options for creating the index buffer.

ppIndexBuffer

[out] Pointer to an IDirect3DIndexBuffer9 interface, representing index buffer containing the strip.

pNumIndices

[out] Number of indices in the buffer returned in the ppIndexBuffer parameter.

ppStripLengths

[out] Buffer containing an array of one DWORD per strip, that specifies the number of triangles in the that strip.

pNumStrips

[out] Number of individual strips in the index buffer and corresponding strip length array.
