The CommonStates class is a factory which simplifies setting the most common combinations of Direct3D rendering states.
For exception safety, it is recommended you make use of the C++ RAII pattern and use a std::unique_ptr or std::shared_ptr

Initialization
The CommonStates constructor requires a Direct3D 11 device.
std::unique_ptr<CommonStates> states(new CommonStates(device));Using this helper to set device state
deviceContext->OMSetBlendState(states->Opaque(), Colors::Black, 0xFFFFFFFF);
deviceContext->OMSetDepthStencilState(states->DepthDefault(), 0);
deviceContext->RSSetState(states->CullCounterClockwise());
auto samplerState = states->LinearWrap();
deviceContext->PSSetSamplers(0, 1, &samplerState);Available states
