vkCreateWin32SurfaceKHR - Create a SurfaceKHR object for an Win32 native window

Parameters

• instance is the instance to associate the surface with.

• pCreateInfo is a pointer to a Win32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR 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 SurfaceKHR handle in which the created surface object is returned.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

• instance must be a valid Instance handle

• pCreateInfo must be a valid pointer to a valid Win32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR structure
• If pAllocator is not NULL, pAllocator must be a valid pointer to a valid AllocationCallbacks structure
• pSurface must be a valid pointer to a SurfaceKHR handle

Return Codes

Success

• SUCCESS

Failure

• ERROR_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORY
• ERROR_OUT_OF_DEVICE_MEMORY

vkGetPhysicalDeviceWin32PresentationSupportKHR - query queue family support for presentation on a Win32 display

Parameters

• physicalDevice is the physical device.

• queueFamilyIndex is the queue family index.

Description

VkSurfaceKHR - Opaque handle to a surface object

Description

The VK_KHR_surface extension declares the SurfaceKHR object, and provides a function for destroying SurfaceKHR objects. Separate platform-specific extensions each provide a function for creating a SurfaceKHR object for the respective platform. From the application’s perspective this is an opaque handle, just like the handles of other Vulkan objects.
