|

Effects for Direct3D 11 (FX11) is a management runtime for authoring HLSL shaders, render
|
||||
state, and runtime variables together.
|
||||
|
||||
The source is written for Visual Studio 2013 or 2015. It is recommended that you
|
||||
make use of VS 2013 Update 5, VS 2015 Update 2, and Windows 7 Service Pack 1 or later.
|
||||
|
||||
These components are designed to work without requiring any content from the DirectX SDK. For details,
|
||||
see "Where is the DirectX SDK?" <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee663275.aspx>.

DISCLAIMER
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
Effects 11 is being provided as a porting aid for older code that makes use of the Effects 10 (FX10) API or Effects 9 (FX9)
|
||||
API in the deprecated D3DX9 library. See MSDN for a list of differences compared to the Effects 10 (FX10) library.
|
||||
|
||||
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ff476141.aspx
|
||||
|
||||
The Effects 11 library is for use in Win32 desktop applications. FX11 requires the D3DCompiler API be available at runtime
|
||||
to provide shader reflection functionality, and this API is not deployable for Windows Store apps on Windows 8.0, Windows RT,
|
||||
or Windows phone 8.0.
|
||||
|
||||
The fx_5_0 profile support in the HLSL compiler is deprecated, and does not fully support DirectX 11.1 HLSL features
|
||||
such as minimum precision types. It is supported in the Windows 8.1 SDK version of the HLSL compiler (FXC.EXE) and
|
||||
D3DCompile API (#46), is supported but generates a deprecation warning with D3DCompile API (#47), and could be removed
|
||||
in a future update.

Added IUnknown as a base class for all Effects 11 interfaces to simplify use in managed interop sceanrios, although the

lifetime for these objects is still based on the lifetime of the parent ID3DX11Effect object. Therefore reference counting
|
||||
is ignored for these interfaces.

||||
ID3DX11EffectType, ID3DX11EffectVariable and derived classes, ID3DX11EffectPass,
|
||||
ID3DX11EffectTechnique, and ID3DX11EffectGroup
|

October 24, 2012 (11.03)
|

||||
It does require the d3dcompiler.h header from either the Windows 8.0 SDK or from the legacy DirectX SDK
|
||||
Removed references to D3D10 constants and interfaces
|

Deleted the d3dx11dbg.cpp and d3dx11dbg.h files
|
||||
Deleted the D3DX11_EFFECT_PASS flags which were never implemented

SAL2 annotation and /analyze cleanup

|
||||
|
||||
June 2010 (11.02)
|
||||
The DirectX SDK (June 2010) included an update with some minor additional bug fixes. This also included the Effects 11-based
|
||||
sample DynamicShaderLinkageFX11. This is the last version to support Visual Studio 2008. The source code is located in
|
||||
Samples\C++\Effects11.
|
||||
|
||||
February 2010 (11.01)
|
||||
An update was shipped with the DirectX SDK (February 2010). This fixed a problem with the library which prevented it from
|
||||
working correctly on 9.x and 10.x feature levels. This is the last version to support Visual Studio 2005. The source code
|
||||
is located in Samples\C++\Effects11.
|
||||
|
||||
August 2009 (11.00)
|
||||
The initial release of Effects 11 (FX11) was in the DirectX SDK (August 2009). The source code is located in
|
||||
Utilities\Source\Effects11. This is essentially the Effects 10 (FX10) system ported to Direct3D 11.0 with
|
||||
support for effects pools removed and support for groups added.
