Methods

Method Description

CheckDepthStencilMatch Determines whether a depth stencil format is compatible with a render target format in a particular display mode.

CheckDeviceFormat Determines whether a surface format is available as a specified resource type and can be used as a texture, depth stencil buffer, render target, or any combination of the three, on a device representing the current adapter.

CheckDeviceFormatConversion Tests a device to determine whether it supports conversion from one display format to another.

CheckDeviceMultiSampleType Determines whether a multisampling technique is available on the current device.

CheckDeviceType Specifies whether a hardware-accelerated device type can be used on the current adapter.

DisableD3DSpy Blocks D3DSpy from monitoring an application.

Equals Returns a value that indicates whether the current instance is equal to a specified object.

Finalize Allows the Manager object to free resources before it is destroyed by the garbage collector.

GenerateD3DSpyBreak Generates a breakpoint in D3DSpy when called within the application.

GetAdapterMonitor Returns the handle of the monitor associated with the Microsoft Direct3D object.

GetDeviceCaps Retrieves information specific to a device.

GetHashCode Returns the hash code for the current instance.

op_Equality Compares the current instance of a class to another instance to determine whether they are the same.

op_Inequality Compares the current instance of a class to another instance to determine whether they are different.

Remarks

In managed code, the Manager class replaces most of the functionality of the C++ IDirect3D9 interface, except that it does not create a device. For device creation and manipulation options, see Device. Also note that the Manager class cannot be inherited or directly instantiated.
