ABSTRACT:
A first graphics application produces surface data using a first graphics applications programming interface. A second graphics application uses a second graphics applications programming interface that is incompatible with the first graphics applications programming interface to process the surface data for display. A device driver requests driver level information from the second graphics application and stores the surface data in a portion of memory specified by the driver level information. Although the first graphics application is incompatible with the second graphics application, surface data produced by the first graphics application may be processed for display by the second graphics application.
