BufferCaps Structure

Language:

Contains properties that describe the capabilities of a Buffer object or a SecondaryBuffer object.

Definition

Visual Basic Public Structure BufferCaps

C# public struct BufferCaps

Members Table

The following table lists the members exposed by the object. Click a tab on the left to choose the type of member you want to view.

Methods

Method Description

BufferCaps Initializes a new instance of the BufferCaps structure.

ToString Obtains a string representation of the current instance.

Properties

Property Description

BufferBytes Retrieves the size of the new buffer.

CanGetCurrentPosition Retrieves whether the application can get a more accurate play cursor.

Control3D Retrieves whether the buffer has 3-D control capability.

ControlEffects Retrieves whether the buffer supports effects processing.

ControlFrequency Retrieves whether the buffer has frequency control capability.

ControlPan Retrieves whether the buffer has pan control capability.

ControlPositionNotify Retrieves whether the buffer has position notification capability.

ControlVolume Retrieves whether the buffer has volume control capability.

GlobalFocus Retrieves whether the buffer is a global sound buffer.

LocateInHardware Retrieves whether the buffer must use hardware mixing.

LocateInSoftware Retrieves whether the buffer must use software memory and use software mixing, even if BufferDescription.StaticBuffer is specified and hardware resources are available.

LocationDefer Retrieves whether the buffer can be assigned to a hardware or software resource at play time.

Mute3DAtMaximumDistance Retrieves whether the sound is reduced to silence at the maximum distance.

PlayCpuOverhead Retrieves the processing overhead, as a percentage, of main processor cycles needed to mix this sound buffer.

PrimaryBuffer Retrieves whether the buffer is a primary sound buffer.

StaticBuffer Retrieves whether the buffer is placed in on-board hardware memory, if available.

StickyFocus Retrieves whether the buffer has sticky focus.

UnlockTransferRate Retrieves the rate, in kilobytes per second, at which data is transferred to the buffer memory when reading and writing to a buffer.
