Members Table

The following table lists the members exposed by the object.

Events

Event	Description
Disposing	Occurs when the Dispose method is called or when the Surface object is finalized and collected by the garbage collector of the .NET common language runtime.

Methods

Method	Description
Dispose	Immediately releases the unmanaged resources used by the Surface object.
Equals	Returns a value that indicates whether the current instance is equal to a specified object. Inherited from Resource.
Finalize	Allows the Surface object to free resources before it is destroyed by the garbage collector.
FreePrivateData	Frees the specified private data associated with the current resource. Inherited from Resource.
FromBitmap	Creates a surface from a .NET bitmap object.
FromStream	Creates a surface from a Microsoft .NET stream object.
GetContainer	Provides access to the parent cube texture or texture (mipmap) object.
GetGraphics	Retrieves a device context.
GetHashCode	Returns the hash code for the current instance. Inherited from Resource.
GetObjectByValue	This member supports the infrastructure for Microsoft DirectX 9.0 for Managed Code and is not intended to be used directly from your code.
GetPrivateData	Copies the private data associated with a resource to a buffer. Inherited from Resource.
LockRectangle	Locks a rectangle on a surface.
op_Equality	Compares the current instance of a class to another instance to determine whether they are the same. Inherited from Resource.
op_Inequality	Compares the current instance of a class to another instance to determine whether they are different. Inherited from Resource.
PreLoad	Preloads a managed resource. Inherited from Resource.
raise_Disposing	Raises the Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.Surface.Disposing event when called from within a derived class.
ReleaseGraphics	Releases the device context obtained by calling Surface.GetGraphics.
SetPriority	Assigns the resource-management priority for the current resource. Inherited from Resource.
SetPrivateData	Associates data with the resource that is intended for use by the application. Data is passed by value, and multiple sets of data can be associated with a single resource. Inherited from Resource.
Surface	Initializes a new instance of the Surface class.
UnlockRectangle	Unlocks a rectangle on a surface.
UpdateUnmanagedPointer	Updates the unmanaged pointer for this Surface object. This method supports the .NET Framework infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly in your code.
UpdateUnmanagedPointer	Updates the unmanaged pointer for this Resource object. This method supports the Framework infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly in your code. Inherited from Resource.
