·No return value.

type

State to override. This parameter should be one of the members of the D3DTRANSFORMSTATETYPE, D3DLIGHTSTATETYPE, or D3DRENDERSTATETYPE enumerated types.

An application might, for example, use the STATE_DATA macro (defined in the D3dmacs.h header file in the Misc directory of the DirectX SDK sample code) and D3DSTATE_OVERRIDE to lock and unlock the D3DRENDERSTATE_SHADEMODE render state:

// Lock the shade mode.

STATE_DATA(D3DSTATE_OVERRIDE(D3DRENDERSTATE_SHADEMODE), TRUE, lpBuffer);

// Work with the shade mode and unlock it when read-only status is not required.

STATE_DATA(D3DSTATE_OVERRIDE(D3DRENDERSTATE_SHADEMODE), FALSE, lpBuffer);
