Function Prototype

vkCreateEvent

Create a new event object

To create an event, call:

VkResult vkCreateEvent(
    VkDevice device,
    const VkEventCreateInfo* pCreateInfo,
    const VkAllocationCallbacks* pAllocator,
    VkEvent* pEvent);

pub fn create_event(
    device: vk::Device,
    p_create_info: *const vk::EventCreateInfo,
    p_allocator: *const vk::AllocationCallbacks,
    p_event: *mut vk::Event,
) -> vk::Result;

device is the logical device that creates the event.
pCreateInfo is a pointer to a VkEventCreateInfo structure containing information about how the event is to be created.
pAllocator controls host memory allocation as described in the Memory Allocation chapter.
pEvent is a pointer to a handle in which the resulting event object is returned.

When created, the event object is in the unsignaled state.
