The IDirect3DMaterial2::GetHandle method obtains the material handle of the Direct3DMaterial object. This handle is used in all Direct3D methods in which a material is to be referenced. A material can be used by only one device at a time.
If the device is destroyed, the material is disassociated from the device.
HRESULT GetHandle(
LPDIRECT3DDEVICE2 lpDirect3DDevice2,
LPD3DMATERIALHANDLE lpHandle
);
Parameters
lpDirect3DDevice2
Address of the Direct3DDevice2 object in which the material is being used.
lpHandle
Address of a variable that will be filled with the material handle corresponding to the Direct3DMaterial object.
Return Values
If the method succeeds, the return value is D3D_OK.
If the method fails, the return value is DDERR_INVALIDOBJECT.
Remarks
In the IDirect3DMaterial interface, this method uses a pointer to a Direct3DMaterial object instead of a Direct3DMaterial2 object.
