vkGetRandROutputDisplayEXT

Query the VkDisplayKHR corresponding to an X11 RandR Output

When acquiring displays from an X11 server, an application may also wish to enumerate and identify them using a native handle rather than a VkDisplayKHR handle. To determine the VkDisplayKHR handle corresponding to an X11 RandR Output, call:

VkResult vkGetRandROutputDisplayEXT(
    VkPhysicalDevice physicalDevice,
    Display* dpy,
    RROutput rrOutput,
    VkDisplayKHR* pDisplay);
  • physicalDevice The physical device to query the display handle on.
  • dpy A connection to the X11 server from which rrOutput was queried.
  • rrOutput An X11 RandR output ID.
  • pDisplay The corresponding VkDisplayKHR handle will be returned here.

If there is no VkDisplayKHR corresponding to rrOutput on physicalDevice, VK_NULL_HANDLE must be returned in pDisplay.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

VUID-vkGetRandROutputDisplayEXT-dpy-parameter

dpy must be a valid pointer to a Display value

VUID-vkGetRandROutputDisplayEXT-pDisplay-parameter

pDisplay must be a valid pointer to a VkDisplayKHR handle
