`BackBufferSwapEventArgs`	Event arguments for a `ISwapChain::swapped` event.
`ResetEventArgs`	Event arguments for a `ISwapChain::reseted` event.

Name	Description
`~ISwapChain` [destructor] [virtual]	Destructor
`addTimingEvent` [virtual]	Adds a new timing event.
`buffers` [virtual]	Returns the number of images in the swap chain.
`device` [virtual]	Returns the swap chain's parent device instance.
`getSurfaceFormats` [virtual]	Returns an array of supported formats, that can be drawn to the surface.
`image`	`image` overloads
`images`	Returns an array of the swap chain present images.
`present` [virtual]	Queues a present that gets executed after `fence` has been signaled on the default graphics queue.
`readTimingEvent` [virtual]	Reads the current time stamp value (in ticks) of a timing event.
`registerTimingEvent`	Creates a new instance of a `TimingEvent`.
`renderArea` [virtual]	Returns the size of the render area.
`reset` [virtual]	Causes the swap chain to be re-created. All frame and command buffers will be invalidated and rebuilt.
