Direct3D7.CreateVertexBuffer

The Direct3D7.CreateVertexBuffer method creates a vertex buffer object.

object.CreateVertexBuffer( _ 
    desc As D3DVERTEXBUFFERDESC, _ 
    flags As CONST_D3DDPFLAGS) As Direct3DVertexBuffer7

Parameters

object

Object expression that resolves to a Direct3D7 object.

desc

A D3DVERTEXBUFFERDESC type that describes the format and number of vertices that the vertex buffer will contain.

flags

One of the constants of the CONST_D3DDPFLAGS enumeration (flexible vertex format flags) representing the clipping value. Set this parameter to 0 to create a vertex buffer that can contain clipping information for untransformed or transformed vertices, or use the D3DDP_DONOTCLIP flag to create a vertex buffer that will contain transformed vertices, but no clipping information.

Return Values

If the method succeeds, a reference to a Direct3DVertexBuffer7 object is returned.

Error Codes

If the method fails, an error is raised and Err.Number may be set to one of the following error codes:
