IDirect3DResource8::GetDevice

This method retrieves the device associated with a resource.

HRESULT GetDevice(
  IDirect3DDevice8** ppDevice
);

Parameters

• ppDevice
  [out, retval] Address of a pointer to an IDirect3DDevice8 interface to fill with the device pointer, if the query succeeds.

Return Values

If the method succeeds, the return value is D3D_OK.

If the method fails, the return value can be D3DERR_INVALIDCALL.

Remarks

This method allows navigation to the owning device object.

Calling this method will increase the internal reference count on the IDirect3DDevice8 interface. Failure to call IUnknown::Release when finished using this IDirect3DDevice8 interface results in a memory leak.

This method applies to the following interfaces, which inherit from IDirect3DResource8.

• IDirect3DBaseTexture8
• IDirect3DIndexBuffer8
• IDirect3DTexture8
• IDirect3DVertexBuffer8

Requirements

OS Versions: Windows CE .NET 4.0 and later.
