Detailed Description

A mini Max class descriptor. This is purely to instantiate multiple objects, and query the Parser ID for the DLL.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ~EffectDescriptor()

virtual ~EffectDescriptor ( )
inlinevirtual

Destructor.

509{;}

Member Function Documentation

◆ CreateParser()

virtual IEffectParser * CreateParser ( )
pure virtual

Called by the system to create an instance of the parser.

Returns
A valid pointer to the parser

◆ GetParserID()

virtual ULONG GetParserID ( )
pure virtual

The unique ID that is used in the effect file.

The system will look at the effect file and then will get the ID. it will then use this ID to query for a parser

Returns
The ID of this parser

◆ GetParserFileFilterName()

virtual const MCHAR * GetParserFileFilterName ( )
pure virtual

The string to go along with the extension supported to be displayed in the Open Dialog box.

This should be in the form "Microsoft Direct3D Effects"

◆ GetParserFileExtension()

virtual const MCHAR * GetParserFileExtension ( )
pure virtual

Get the support file extension for the parser.

The system will filter "like" extensions. This is only used for the open dialog box. The ParamID is still used to define the actual parser to use. THe string should be in the form "*.fx"
