Methods
GetData(CommandList)
Gets the content of this texture to an array of data.
public T[] GetData(CommandList commandList)
Parameters
commandList
CommandList
Returns
- T[]
An array of data.
Remarks
This method is only working when called from the main thread that is accessing the main GraphicsDevice. This method creates internally a stagging resource if this texture is not already a stagging resouce, copies to it and map it to memory. Use method with explicit staging resource for optimal performances.
SetData(CommandList, ref T, int)
Copies the content of a single structure data from CPU memory to this buffer into GPU memory.
public void SetData(CommandList commandList, ref T fromData, int offsetInBytes = 0)
Parameters
commandList
CommandListfromData
TThe data to copy from.
offsetInBytes
intThe offset in bytes to write to.
Remarks
This method is only working when called from the main thread that is accessing the main GraphicsDevice. See the unmanaged documentation about Map/UnMap for usage and restrictions.
Exceptions
SetData(CommandList, T[], int)
Copies the content an array of data from CPU memory to this buffer into GPU memory.
public void SetData(CommandList commandList, T[] fromData, int offsetInBytes = 0)
Parameters
commandList
CommandListfromData
T[]The data to copy from.
offsetInBytes
intThe offset in bytes to write to.
