Port SlimDX to Windows 8 Metro/WinRT App model #835

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Port SlimDX (or some suitable subset if the full DirectX api is not available) 
to run in the Windows 8 Metro/WinRT application model for use by .Net-based 
Metro apps.

Optional requirements: interoperability with Xaml-based apps, as opposed to 
full-screen directx applications, by using DirectX to render to an off-screen 
surface which is composed into a Xaml UI.

Additional optional requirement: expose the SlimDX API in some form as a 
managed WinRT component, allowing usage of SlimDX in JavaScript/HTML5 based 
metro apps. This component should be separate from the managed component that 
forwards through calls to the managed assembly. This is so managed apps 
wouldn't incur any overhead from COM invocation, if any.

We are going to do this, but need to sit down and assess exactly how much 
rewrite we're doing, whether SlimDX 2.0 work is involved, and what our target 
feature set is.
