Function Prototype
vkCreateIOSSurfaceMVK
Create a VkSurfaceKHR object for an iOS UIView
To create a VkSurfaceKHR
object for an iOS UIView
or
CAMetalLayer, call:
VkResult vkCreateIOSSurfaceMVK(
VkInstance instance,
const VkIOSSurfaceCreateInfoMVK* pCreateInfo,
const VkAllocationCallbacks* pAllocator,
VkSurfaceKHR* pSurface);
instance
is the instance with which to associate the surface.pCreateInfo
is a pointer to a VkIOSSurfaceCreateInfoMVK 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.
The vkCreateIOSSurfaceMVK
function is considered deprecated and has been
superseded by vkCreateMetalSurfaceEXT from the
VK_EXT_metal_surface extension.
