_D3DDDIQUERYTYPE enumeration

Description

The query type.

Constants

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_VCACHE

Query at issue end for driver hints about data layout for vertex caching. This query is processed through a call to the driver's IssueQuery function in which the End bit-field flag is set in the Flags member of the D3DDDIARG_ISSUEQUERY structure.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_RESOURCEMANAGER

Query the driver's resource manager.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_VERTEXSTATS

Query for the vertex stats.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_DDISTATS

Query for the DDI stats.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_EVENT

Query at issue end for asynchronous events that have occurred.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_OCCLUSION

Query for the number of pixels that pass z-testing. These pixels are for primitives that are drawn between an issue begin and an issue end.

This query is processed between calls to the driver's IssueQuery function in which first the Begin bit-field flag is set in the Flags member of the D3DDDIARG_ISSUEQUERY structure and next the End bit-field flag is set.

This query enables an application to check the occlusion result against 0. A value of 0 is "fully occluded," which means the pixels are not visible from the current camera position.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_TIMESTAMP

Query at issue end for the 64-bit timestamp.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_TIMESTAMPDISJOINT

This query is used to notify an application whether the counter frequency has changed from the value that is returned from the D3DQUERYTYPE_TIMESTAMP query.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_TIMESTAMPFREQ

The GPU timestamp frequency for resolving query timestamps.

This query result is TRUE if the values from D3DQUERYTYPE_TIMESTAMP queries cannot be guaranteed to be continuous throughout the duration of the D3DQUERYTYPE_TIMESTAMPDISJOINT query. Otherwise, the query result is FALSE.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_PIPELINETIMINGS

Query for the percent of processing time spent on pipeline data.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_INTERFACETIMINGS

Query for the percent of processing time spent on data in the driver.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_VERTEXTIMINGS

Query for the percent of processing time spent on vertex shader data.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_PIXELTIMINGS

Query for the percent of processing time spent on pixel shader data.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_BANDWIDTHTIMINGS

Query for throughput measurements for help in understanding the performance of an application.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_CACHEUTILIZATION

Query for the cache hit-rate performance for textures and indexed vertices.

D3DDDIQUERYTYPE_COUNTER_DEVICE_DEPENDENT

Query for device-dependent counters.
