Research direction

The issue does not identify a repository file or test; it only shows a CreateShaderResourceView call and a DirectX diagnostic. Start by determining whether the message originates in this samples repository or in DirectX itself. Done would require a maintainer-confirmed path for correcting or reporting the diagnostic typo and NumElements value.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

It's not a proper place to ask but maybe you can point me where I can actually report this:

When Im creating SRV incorrectly, I have D3D12 Error:

D3D12 ERROR: ID3D12Device::CreateShaderResourceView: The Dimensions of the View are invalid due to at least one of the following conditions. Assuming StructureByeStride 48, FirstElement (value = 0) must be between 0 and the maximum offset of the Buffer, -1, inclusively. With the current FirstElement, NumElements (value = 140698833649689) must be between 1 and 0, inclusively, in order that the View fit on the Buffer. [ STATE_CREATION ERROR #31: CREATESHADERRESOURCEVIEW_INVALIDDIMENSIONS]
D3D12: **BREAK** enabled for the previous message, which was: [ ERROR STATE_CREATION #31: CREATESHADERRESOURCEVIEW_INVALIDDIMENSIONS ]

StructureByeStride have a typo. Where to report such problems to help DirectX team?

Thanks

P.S. Also I think NumElements (value = 140698833649689) is incorrect

This is how Im creating my SRV

// Create SRV
D3D12_SHADER_RESOURCE_VIEW_DESC srv_desc = {};
srv_desc.Format = DXGI_FORMAT_UNKNOWN;
srv_desc.ViewDimension = D3D12_SRV_DIMENSION_BUFFER;
srv_desc.Buffer.FirstElement = 0;
srv_desc.Buffer.NumElements = 25;// static_cast<UINT>(all_materials_buffer.size());
srv_desc.Buffer.StructureByteStride = sizeof(SurfaceShaderParameters);
srv_desc.Buffer.Flags = D3D12_BUFFER_SRV_FLAG_NONE;
srv_desc.Shader4ComponentMapping = D3D12_DEFAULT_SHADER_4_COMPONENT_MAPPING;
