Syntax
public enum ResourceUsageRemarks
This defines how the resource should be used when rendering and whether or not it is CPU and/or GPU accessible.
Fields
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Default | A resource that requires read and write access by the GPU. This is likely to be the most common usage choice. |
| Dynamic | A resource that is accessible by both the GPU (read only) and the CPU (write only). A dynamic resource is a good choice for a resource that will be updated by the CPU at least once per frame. To update a dynamic resource, use a method. |
| Immutable | A resource that can only be read by the GPU. It cannot be written by the GPU, and cannot be accessed at all by the CPU. This type of resource must be initialized when it is created, since it cannot be changed after creation. |
| None | No intended usage was defined for this resource. |
| Staging | A resource that supports data transfer (copy) from the GPU to the CPU. |
