Rewrite Windows 8.1 samples #307
Labels
Comments
From the list of Windows8.1 C++ samples, the following samples might be interesting to port as-is:
They should give a good overview about XAML/Direct3D/Direct2D interop, Some of them (like Direct2D custom image effects sample), were partially done in the previous SharpDX Windows8, so we could leverage copy part of the reusable code that was done there. |

Would also be nice if you write some animation tutorials. At leats 2-3 samples to understand this part of DirectX and how to correctly do this. Didn`t find any normal tutorial for DX 11. |

Windows 8 samples SharpDX were written in a hurry when Windows 8 was released.
People have been using these samples as a starting point to develop/tests SharpDX with Windows 8, even some people expect the "Common" part to be a framework where it was just to avoid duplicate code within Win8 samples.
In order to simplify these samples and to avoid the burden of their maintenance, we need to peek only 2-3 C++ existing samples from Windows 8.x SDK, and port them as-is, with almost a one-to-one matching without trying to refactor/abstract things. These samples should just give a grasp of SharpDX and Windows 8 integration but should not cover all usages of the API. If someone needs to go deeper, there are several C++ existing samples in the SDK that are easy to port once you get the idea about SharpDX API.
We need to evaluate what is really worth investigating in the integration of Direct3D/2D with Windows8.x (
