Evidence basis: source-verified at the pinned commit. Claims on this page were checked by reading the CNA source at commit c1c316b9; unless a sentence says otherwise, nothing here was built or executed. A tree-shape inventory; it does not distinguish supported API from headers that merely sit under include/.

Generated page. Produced by python3 scripts/generate_dev_reference.py from the Git objects of CNA commit c1c316b9; do not edit it by hand. It is a syntactic inventory: it locates declarations and files, and does not establish behaviour, build success or test results.

“Public” is a tree-shape term here. The lists below are headers under include/CNA or include/Microsoft, outside Internal. That includes the XNA-shaped surface. Export macros and target install rules remain authoritative for what a shipped binary actually exposes, and the experimental C ABI (modules/c-api/include/CNA/C, ABI 0.46.0) is separately versioned.

Deep dives on this topic

Long-form pages that explain the exact semantics, invariants and evidence behind this subject.

  • Auditing the XNA API surface: the census, xna4-spec and two worked audits — How CNA's 331/331 and 3,627/3,627 API census is produced and read, which reference settles which question, and worked surface audits of Ray and Viewport against XNA's own IL.
  • Avatars: the standard XNA avatar API on CNA's own avatars — How CNA's XNA avatar classes draw original CNA avatars on XNA's 71-bone rig: descriptions, the renderer, the 31 presets, catalogs and the editor, plus the separate SkinnedModelEXT extension and the evidence behind both.
  • CNAEXT catalogue: extension surfaces by namespace — A catalogue of CNA's non-XNA surface at snapshot c1c316b9, namespace by namespace, with member names, reasons and boundaries, how much the CNAEXT marker covers, and what the strict check proves.
  • ContentManager resolution, caching and failure rules — Which file ContentManager::Load<T> actually reads, what RootDirectory does and does not confine, what the cache keeps, and which exception each tier throws at this snapshot.
  • Core framework and graphics API map — An orientation map of CNA's core framework and graphics API: owning headers, public shape, the boundary that trips ports, and where each behaviour is explained, for math, framework, content, resources, effects and device state.
  • From C# to C++: CNA's translation conventions — How CNA represents C# XNA concepts in C++ so that code stays diffable against the reference: names, properties, aliases, events, interfaces, disposal, visibility, layout and the porting checklist.
  • GamerServices behaviour contract — What CNA's GamerServices does with local offline profiles and with a configured CNA service: sign-in, configuration and credentials, the offline store, achievements, leaderboards, the Guide and the dispatcher.
  • Native C API contract: admission, buffers, retention and route families — What CNA's C ABI 0.46.0 version checks admit, the exact count-then-copy protocol, callback, registration and thread rules, resources that retain others, caller-created devices and all 60 headers by family.
  • Network sessions and the SystemLink protocol — What each NetworkSessionType does in CNA, online sessions through the CNA service relay, the SystemLink wire and discovery protocols, the trust model, delivery guarantees, host migration and the evidence behind them.
