  • lpDDSurface

  • lplpDupDDSurface
    Address of a variable that will be filled with an IDirectDrawSurface5 interface pointer for the newly duplicated DirectDrawSurface object.

If the method fails, the return value may be one of the following error values:

DDERR_CANTDUPLICATE

Remarks

This method creates a new DirectDrawSurface object that points to the same surface memory as an existing DirectDrawSurface object.

This duplicate can be used like the original object.

The surface memory is released after the last object referencing it is released.

A primary surface, 3-D surface, or implicitly created surface cannot be duplicated.
