DirectX Tool Kit for DirectX 11
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=248929
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation.
November 8, 2021
This package contains the "DirectX Tool Kit", a collection of helper classes for writing Direct3D 11 C++ code for Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps for Windows 11, Windows 10, Xbox One, and Win32 desktop applications for Windows 7 Service Pack 1 or later.
This code is designed to build with Visual Studio 2017 (15.9), Visual Studio 2019, Visual Studio 2022, or clang for Windows v11 or later. Use of the Windows 10 May 2020 Update SDK (19041) or later is required.
These components are designed to work without requiring any content from the legacy DirectX SDK. For details, see Where is the DirectX SDK?.

Release Notes
As of the October 2021 release, the DGSLEffect no longer directly supports skinning. Instead, make use of SkinnedDGSLEffect which is derived from DGSLEffect.
As of the August 2021 release, MakeSpriteFont requires the .NET version 4.7.2 targeting pack to be installed to build. For VS 2017, this is an optional individual component .NET Framework 4.7.2 development tools (
Microsoft.Net.Component.4.7.2.TargetingPack
).Starting with the June 2020 release, this library makes use of typed enum bitmask flags per the recommendation of the C++ Standard section 17.5.2.1.3 Bitmask types. This may have breaking change impacts to client code:
You cannot pass the
0
literal as your flags value. Instead you must make use of the appropriate default enum value:AudioEngine_Default
,SoundEffectInstance_Default
,ModelLoader_Clockwise
, orWIC_LOADER_DEFAULT
.Use the enum type instead of
DWORD
if building up flags values locally with bitmask operations. For example,WIC_LOADER_FLAGS flags = WIC_LOADER_DEFAULT; if (...) flags |= WIC_LOADER_FORCE_SRGB;
The UWP projects and the Win10 classic desktop project include configurations for the ARM64 platform. These require VS 2017 (15.9 update) or later to build, with the ARM64 toolset installed.
The
CompileShaders.cmd
script must have Windows-style (CRLF) line-endings. If it is changed to Linux-style (LF) line-endings, it can fail to build all the required shaders.
