I'm trying to create an application in which I render to a sampled buffer, resolve that buffer, and then pass on the resolved resource to another system. However, I seem to be having trouble with the 'ResolveSubresource' method throwing the following exception :

First-chance exception at 0x761EC42D (KernelBase.dll) in DirectCanvasTest.exe: 0x0000087A (parameters: 0x00000000, 0x0036CD94, 0x0036C1CC).

The output window reports the following :

D3D11 CORRUPTION: ID3D10Device::ResolveSubresource: Third parameter is corrupt or NULL. [ MISCELLANEOUS CORRUPTION #15: CORRUPTED_PARAMETER3]
First-chance exception at 0x761EC42D (KernelBase.dll) in DirectCanvasTest.exe: 0x0000087A (parameters: 0x00000000, 0x0036CD94, 0x0036C1CC).

Not sure what I'm doing wrong, the thrid paramter isn't null, so I guess I'm creating it incorrectly. Here is the code for that as well as the resolve method:

void ResizeBuffers(int _width, int _height)
        {
            if (m_renderTarget != null)
            {
                m_renderTarget.Dispose();
            }

            if (m_renderTargetView != null)
            {
                m_renderTargetView.Dispose();
            }

            _width = (int)_width > 0 ? (int)_width : 64;
            _height = (int)_height > 0 ? (int)_height : 64;

            var targetDesc = new Texture2DDescription()
            {
                BindFlags = BindFlags.RenderTarget | BindFlags.ShaderResource,
                Format = Format.B8G8R8A8_UNorm,
                Width = _width,
                Height = _height,
                MipLevels = 1,
                SampleDescription = new SampleDescription(4, 4),
                Usage = ResourceUsage.Default,
                OptionFlags = ResourceOptionFlags.None,
                CpuAccessFlags = CpuAccessFlags.None,
                ArraySize = 1
            };

            m_renderTarget = new Texture2D(Device, targetDesc);
            m_renderTargetView = new RenderTargetView(Device, m_renderTarget);

            targetDesc = new Texture2DDescription()
            {
                BindFlags = BindFlags.RenderTarget | BindFlags.ShaderResource,
                Format = Format.B8G8R8A8_UNorm,
                Width = _width,
                Height = _height,
                MipLevels = 1,
                SampleDescription = new SampleDescription(1, 0),
                Usage = ResourceUsage.Default,
                OptionFlags = ResourceOptionFlags.None,
                CpuAccessFlags = CpuAccessFlags.None,
                ArraySize = 1
            };

            m_resolveTarget = new Texture2D(Device, targetDesc);
        }

        void ResolveTarget()
        {
            int sourceIndex = SlimDX.Direct3D10.Resource.CalculateSubresourceIndex(0, 1, 1);
            int destIndex = SlimDX.Direct3D10.Resource.CalculateSubresourceIndex(0, 1, 1);
            Device.ResolveSubresource(m_renderTarget, sourceIndex, m_resolveTarget, destIndex, Format.B8G8R8A8_UNorm);
        }

Anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Your C# side parameter is not null but the underlying COM pointer might be. Have you involuntarily Disposed() your texture ?

Upon further investigation the underlying COM pointer was indeed null due to me unintentionly releasing it earlier in the code. Having fixed that, things are now working. Thankyou
