Prototype

RenderType GetRenderType(void) const;

Description

The GetRenderType function returns one of the following constants, representing the primitive render type of an object, where n represents the number of vertices.

`kRenderPointList`	A set of n points to be amplified in a geometry shader.
`kRenderLineList`	A set of n / 2 unconnected line segments.
`kRenderLineStrip`	A set of n − 1 connected line segments.
`kRenderLineListIndex16`	A set of line segments with 16-bit indexed vertices.
`kRenderTriangleList`	A set of n / 3 unconnected triangles.
`kRenderTriangleStrip`	A set of n − 2 triangles connected as a strip.
`kRenderTriangleListIndex16`	A set of triangles with 16-bit indexed vertices.
`kRenderTriangleListIndex32`	A set of triangles with 32-bit indexed vertices.
`kRenderQuadList`	A set of n / 4 unconnected quads.
