Updated for Visual Studio 2013 and Windows 8.1 SDK RTM

October 24, 2012 (11.03)

• Removed the dependency on the D3DX11 headers, so FX11 no longer requires the legacy DirectX SDK to build. It does require the d3dcompiler.h header from either the Windows 8.x SDK or from the legacy DirectX SDK
• Removed references to D3D10 constants and interfaces
• Deleted the d3dx11dbg.cpp and d3dx11dbg.h files
• Deleted the D3DX11_EFFECT_PASS flags which were never implemented
• General C++ code cleanups (nullptr, C++ style casting, stdint.h types, Safer CRT, etc.) which are compatible with Visual C++ 2010 and 2012
• SAL2 annotation and /analyze cleanup
• Added population of Direct3D debug names for object naming support in PIX and the SDK debug layer; added additional optional parameter to D3DX11CreateEffectFromMemory to provide a debug name
• Added D3DX11CreateEffectFromFile, D3DX11CompileEffectFromMemory, and D3DX11CompileEffectFromFile

Updates for Visual Studio 2015 Technical Preview

This version is also available on NuGet as version 2014.11.24.1

• Windows desktop app using VS 2013

November 6, 2012 (11.04)

• Added IUnknown as a base class for all Effects 11 interfaces to simplify use in managed interop sceanrios, although the lifetime for these objects is still based on the lifetime of the parent ID3DX11Effect object. Therefore reference counting is ignored for these interfaces.
  • ID3DX11EffectType, ID3DX11EffectVariable and derived classes, ID3DX11EffectPass, ID3DX11EffectTechnique, and ID3DX11EffectGroup

June 13, 2013 (11.06)

• Added GetMatrixPointerArray, GetMatrixTransposePointerArray, SetMatrixPointerArray, SetMatrixTransposePointerArray methods
• Reverted back to BOOL in some cases because sizeof(bool)==1, sizeof(BOOL)==4
• Some code-cleanup: minor SAL fix, removed bad assert, and added use of override keyword
