LiteFX::Rendering::RenderBackend::findAdapter

Finds an adapter using its unique ID.

Synopsis

Declared in <litefx/rendering.hpp>

virtual adapter_type const* findAdapter(Optional<UInt64> const& adapterId = std::nullopt) const override = 0;

Description

Note that the adapter ID is optional, which allows the back-end to return a default adapter instance. Which adapter is used as default adapter, depends on the actual back-end implementation. The interface does not make any constraints on the default adapter to choose. A naive implementation might simply return the first available adapter.

Return Value

A pointer to a graphics adapter, or nullptr, if no adapter could be found.

Parameters

Name	Description
adapterId	The unique ID of the adapter, or std::nullopt to find the default adapter.
