Each register has space for a 32-bit four-component value. The total number of temporary and indexable-temporary registers must be less than or equal to 4096.

This instruction applies to the following shader stages:

Vertex Shader Geometry Shader Pixel Shader
x x x

This instruction is included to aid in debugging a shader in assembly; you cannot author a shader in assembly language using Shader Model 4.

Example

Here is an example.

dcl_temps 10; // Declare r0-r9
