The methods of the IDirectDraw interface are organized into the following groups:

The IDirectDraw interface, like all COM interfaces, inherits the IUnknown interface methods.

The IUnknown interface supports the following three methods:

The IDirectDraw::Initialize method is not supported in Windows Embedded CE.

You can use the LPDIRECTDRAW to declare a variable that contains a pointer to an IDirectDraw interface. The Ddraw.h header file declares this data type with the following code.

typedef struct IDirectDraw*LPDIRECTDRAW;
