Microsoft DirectX 9.0 SDK Update (October 2004)

defb - vs


Defines a Boolean constant value, which should be loaded anytime a shader is set to a device.

Syntax

defb dest, booleanValue

Remarks

The defb - vs instruction defines a boolean shader constant whose value is loaded anytime a shader is set to a device. These are called immediate constants. Immediate constants take precedence over constants set by the application programming interface (API) method SetVertexShaderConstantB.

There are two ways to set a boolean constant in a shader.

  1. Use defb - vs to define the constant directly inside a shader.
  2. Use the API methods to set a constant.
