Therefore reference counting is ignored for these interfaces.- ID3DX11EffectType, ID3DX11EffectVariable and derived classes, ID3DX11EffectPass, ID3DX11EffectTechnique, and ID3DX11EffectGroup
October 24, 2012 (11.03)

- Removed references to D3D10 constants and interfaces
- Deleted the d3dx11dbg.cpp and d3dx11dbg.h files
- Deleted the

flags which were never implemented - General C++ code cleanups (nullptr, C++ style casting, stdint.h types, Safer CRT, etc.) which are compatible with Visual C++ 2010 and 2012
- SAL2 annotation and /analyze cleanup
