I am having issues counting the array elements after passing it into an arguement
void GXDX::LoadMesh(GXVector vertices[], UINT indices[] = NULL)
{
D3D10_BUFFER_DESC bufferDesc;
UINT numVerts = sizeof(vertices)/sizeof(GXVector);
bufferDesc.Usage = D3D10_USAGE_DEFAULT;
bufferDesc.ByteWidth = sizeof(GXVector) * numVerts;
bufferDesc.BindFlags = D3D10_BIND_VERTEX_BUFFER;
bufferDesc.MiscFlags = 0;
bufferDesc.CPUAccessFlags = 0;
code..............
}
In the following line above
UINT numVerts = sizeof(vertices)/sizeof(GXVector);
I am trying to count the number of elements in the array varible vertices. But I am not getting an accurate count, if not one at all.
When I did a step through, I notice that I am not able to see all the values in the array, only the first value of the array.
So I am not sure if I am passing the array correctly as an arguement. In another application, I did the same thing and i was able to see all the values in the step through. I pass the array like this.
GXVector vertices[] = { {D3DXVECTOR3(0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f)},
{D3DXVECTOR3(0.5f, -0.5f, 0.5f)},
{D3DXVECTOR3(-0.5f, -0.5f, 0.5f)},
{D3DXVECTOR3(-0.5f, -0.5f, 0.5f)},
{D3DXVECTOR3(-0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f)},
{D3DXVECTOR3(0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f)},
};
UINT indices[] = {0,1,2,3,4};
GXRenderManager::Device()->LoadMesh(vertices, indices);
So in a nutshell, Am I passing the array right as an arguement, what am I doing wrong where I can not get the correct element count of the array.
