Decrements the lock count for the D3DImage.

The following code example shows how to call the Unlock method to copy the updated back buffer to the front buffer. For more information, see Walkthrough: Hosting Direct3D9 Content in WPF.
d3dimg.Lock();
// Repeatedly calling SetBackBuffer with the same IntPtr is
// a no-op. There is no performance penalty.
d3dimg.SetBackBuffer(D3DResourceType.IDirect3DSurface9, pSurface);
HRESULT.Check(Render());
d3dimg.AddDirtyRect(new Int32Rect(0, 0, d3dimg.PixelWidth, d3dimg.PixelHeight));
d3dimg.Unlock();
Remarks
When the lock count for the D3DImage reaches zero, the D3DImage is fully unlocked. The D3DImage is marked for rendering if the image has changed areas that were specified by previous calls to the AddDirtyRect method.
When the changes are committed and rendering occurs, additional calls to the Lock method block until the render thread has copied the contents of the back buffer to the front buffer. This synchronization avoids display artifacts, such as tearing.
Note
Do not update the Direct3D surface while the D3DImage is unlocked.
