Applications use the methods of the IDirectDrawinterface to create DirectDrawobjects and work with system-level variables. For a conceptual overview, see DirectDraw in the Graphics and Multimedia guide.
The methods of the IDirectDrawinterface are organized into the following groups:

The IDirectDrawinterface, like all COM interfaces, inherits the IUnknowninterface methods.
The IUnknowninterface supports the following three methods:
|
IUnknown |
|
|

The IDirectDraw::Initializemethod is not supported in Windows Embedded CE.
You can use the LPDIRECTDRAWto declare a variable that contains a pointer to an IDirectDrawinterface. The Ddraw.h header file declares this data type with the following code.
