| virtual IEffectParser* CreateParser | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |

- A valid pointer to the parser
| virtual ULONG GetParserID | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
The unique ID that is used in the effect file.
The system will look at the effect file and then will get the ID. it will then use this ID to query for a parser
- Returns:
- The ID of this parser
| virtual const MCHAR* GetParserFileFilterName | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
The string to go along with the extension supported to be displayed in the Open Dialog box.
This should be in the form "Microsoft Direct3D Effects"
| virtual const MCHAR* GetParserFileExtension | ( | ) | [pure virtual] |
