IDirect3DDevice9::BeginStateBlock method (d3d9helper.h)
Signals Direct3D to begin recording a device-state block.
Syntax
HRESULT BeginStateBlock();
Return value
Type: HRESULT
If the method succeeds, the return value is D3D_OK. If the method fails, the return value can be one of the following: D3DERR_INVALIDCALL, E_OUTOFMEMORY.
Remarks
Applications can ensure that all recorded states are valid by calling the IDirect3DDevice9::ValidateDevice method prior to calling this method.
The following methods can be recorded in a state block, after calling IDirect3DDevice9::BeginStateBlock and before IDirect3DDevice9::EndStateBlock.
