Type Parameters

T

The value type. Must be one of the following types: Boolean, Int32, Matrix, Quaternion, Single, Vector2, Vector3, Vector4,

EffectParameterBindingT and EffectParameterArrayBindingT are the base implementations of all parameter bindings of type T. Classes derived from EffectParameterBindingT are used to bind effect parameters that represent a single value (such as Single, Vector3, etc.). Classes that are derived from EffectParameterArrayBindingT are used to bind effect parameters that represent arrays of values.

ConstParameterBindingT and ConstParameterArrayBindingT should be used when the value of the effect parameter is static or updated manually. The value can be set directly. The binding ensures that the parameter is applied whenever the Effect needs to be rendered.

DelegateParameterBindingT and DelegateParameterArrayBindingT need to be used when the value of the effect parameter is dynamic and should be updated automatically.

NullParameterBindingT and NullParameterArrayBindingT are dummy bindings that do not modify effect parameters. These bindings can be set, if parameters should not be updated automatically.

User-defined bindings can be implemented by deriving from EffectParameterBinding, EffectParameterBindingT, or EffectParameterArrayBindingT to define new mechanisms for resolving effect parameter values.

Notes to Inheritors:
The static constructors of EffectParameterBindingT and EffectParameterArrayBindingT automatically validate the value type T and checks whether the type is supported.

Inheritors should override OnUpdate(RenderContext) when the value of the effect parameter needs to be updated before rendering. The new value computed in OnUpdate(RenderContext) must be stored in Value. (It is not necessary to call OnUpdate(RenderContext) of the base class in the derived class.)

By default, OnApply(RenderContext) assigns the current Value to Parameter by using the appropriate EffectParameter.SetValue() method. Inheritors can override this method to perform additional work. It is necessary to call OnApply(RenderContext) of the base class to ensure that the value is properly set.
