Namespaces

Vulkan/Vulkan.Video

These namespaces contain all types and should be compatible with any C library bindings

VkInstanceCreateInfo* instanceCI = scope .(
    pNext: scope VkDebugUtilsMessengerCreateInfoEXT(null, 0,
        messageSeverity: .ErrorEXT | .WarningEXT,
        messageType: .ValidationEXT | .PerformanceEXT,
        (messageSeverity, messageTypes, pCallbackData, pUserData) =>
        {
            Debug.WriteLine(StringView(pCallbackData.pMessage));
            return VK_FALSE;
        }
    ),
    pApplicationInfo: scope .()
    {
        pApplicationName = "Example",
        applicationVersion = VK_MAKE_VERSION(1, 0, 0),
        apiVersion = VK_API_VERSION_1_0,
    },
    enabledLayerNames: .("VK_LAYER_KHRONOS_validation"),
    enabledExtensionNames: instanceExtensions
);

Vulkan.Metadata

This namespace contains metadata from the registry for:

• extensions
• formats
• device features
• structure types
• commands/function

Vulkan.Loader

This namespace contains a loader simlar to volk

VulkanLoader.Init(); // volkInitialize
result = vkCreateInstance(instanceCI, null, let instance); // c-style call
CheckResult(result);
VulkanLoader.LoadInstance(instance); // volkLoadInstanceOnly
defer instance.Destroy(); // pretty call

result = instance.EnumeratePhysicalDevices_Scope!(let physicalDevices); // get an array
CheckResult(result);
