vkCreateDirectFBSurfaceEXT(3)

Name

vkCreateDirectFBSurfaceEXT - Create a VkSurfaceKHR object for a DirectFB surface

C Specification

To create a VkSurfaceKHR object for a DirectFB surface, call:

// Provided by VK_EXT_directfb_surface
VkResult vkCreateDirectFBSurfaceEXT(
    VkInstance                                  instance,
    const VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateInfoEXT*       pCreateInfo,
    const VkAllocationCallbacks*                pAllocator,
    VkSurfaceKHR*                               pSurface);

Parameters

  • instance is the instance to associate the surface with.

  • pCreateInfo is a pointer to a VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateInfoEXT structure containing parameters affecting the creation of the surface object.

  • pAllocator is the allocator used for host memory allocated for the surface object when there is no more specific allocator available (see Memory Allocation).

  • pSurface is a pointer to a VkSurfaceKHR handle in which the created surface object is returned.

Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-vkCreateDirectFBSurfaceEXT-instance-parameter
    instance must be a valid VkInstance handle

  • VUID-vkCreateDirectFBSurfaceEXT-pCreateInfo-parameter
    pCreateInfo must be a valid pointer to a valid VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateInfoEXT structure

  • VUID-vkCreateDirectFBSurfaceEXT-pAllocator-parameter
    If pAllocator is not NULL, pAllocator must be a valid pointer to a valid VkAllocationCallbacks structure

  • VUID-vkCreateDirectFBSurfaceEXT-pSurface-parameter
    pSurface must be a valid pointer to a VkSurfaceKHR handle

Return Codes
Success
  • VK_SUCCESS

Failure
  • VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_DEVICE_MEMORY

  • VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORY

  • VK_ERROR_UNKNOWN

  • VK_ERROR_VALIDATION_FAILED
