HitObject.TraceRay

Description

Executes ray traversal (including anyhit and intersection shaders) like TraceRay, but returns the resulting hit information as a HitObject and does not trigger closesthit or miss shaders.

Signature

static HitObject HitObject.TraceRay<payload_t>(
    RaytracingAccelerationStructure AccelerationStructure,
    uint RayFlags,
    uint InstanceInclusionMask,
    uint RayContributionToHitGroupIndex,
    uint MultiplierForGeometryContributionToHitGroupIndex,
    uint MissShaderIndex,
    RayDesc Ray,
    inout payload_t Payload);

Generic Parameters
