struct ByteAddressBuffer
Conditionally conforms to: __IDynamicResourceCastable<__DynamicResourceKind.General>, IPhysicalBuffer
Description
Represents an opaque handle to a read-only buffer allocated in global memory that is indexed in bytes. ByteAddressBuffer can be used when working with raw buffers. Raw buffer can be viewed as a bag of bits to which you want raw access, that is, a buffer that you can conveniently access through chunks of one to four 32-bit typeless address values.

Conditional Conformances
Conformance to __IDynamicResourceCastable<__DynamicResourceKind.General>
ByteAddressBuffer additionally conforms to \_\_IDynamicResourceCastable\<\_\_DynamicResourceKind\.General\>.
Conformance to IPhysicalBuffer
ByteAddressBuffer additionally conforms to IPhysicalBuffer.
Remarks
This type is supported natively when targeting HLSL. For all other targets, this type maps to a buffer of 32bit unsigned integers.
