IDXGIOutput::TakeOwnership method (dxgi.h)
Takes ownership of an output.
Syntax
HRESULT TakeOwnership(
[in] IUnknown *pDevice,
BOOL Exclusive
);
Parameters
[in] pDevice
Type: IUnknown*
A pointer to the IUnknown interface of a device (such as an ID3D10Device).
Exclusive
Type: BOOL
Set to TRUE to enable other threads or applications to take ownership of the device; otherwise, set to FALSE.
Return value
Type: HRESULT
Returns one of the DXGI_ERROR values.
Remarks
When you are finished with the output, call IDXGIOutput::ReleaseOwnership.
TakeOwnership should not be called directly by applications, since results will be unpredictable. It is called implicitly by the DXGI swap chain object during full-screen transitions, and should not be used as a substitute for swap-chain methods.
Notes for Windows Store apps
If a Windows Store app uses TakeOwnership, it fails with DXGI_ERROR_NOT_CURRENTLY_AVAILABLE.Requirements
