LiteFX::Rendering::GraphicsDeviceFeatures¶
Describes optional features that can be supported by a device.
Synopsis¶
Declared in <litefx/rendering_api.hpp>
struct [[dllimport, dllexport]] GraphicsDeviceFeatures;Description¶
Device features are evaluated when creating a IGraphicsDevice. If a feature is not supported by the device, an exception is raised.
Note that feature support is not strictly enforced by the engine. For example, if you are calling any feature-related API, the call may succeed even if the feature is not enabled, if the GPU supports it. Graphics API validation may warn about it and the same program may fail on GPUs that do not support this feature. Enabling a feature through the settings in this structure makes the device check for support creation, resulting in a clear fail path, if a required extension is not supported by the system hardware.
