WICFactory

DirectXTex

The majority of DirectXTex functions make use of a WIC factory object. This object is normally created on-demand the first time that GetWICFactory is called.

IWICImagingFactory* GetWICFactory(bool& iswic2);
void SetWICFactory(IWICImagingFactory* pWIC);

Remarks

The on-demand WIC factory object is normally not released on exit. To ensure it is released for a 'clean exit' you can use SetWICFactory(nullptr);.

The GetWICFactory function is thread-safe.
