Package org.lwjgl.vulkan

Class EXTMetalObjects

java.lang.Object

org.lwjgl.vulkan.EXTMetalObjects

public class EXTMetalObjects
extends Object

In a Vulkan implementation that is layered on top of Metal on Apple device platforms, this extension provides the ability to import and export the underlying Metal objects associated with specific Vulkan objects.

As detailed in the extension proposal document, this extension adds one new Vulkan command, ExportMetalObjectsEXT, to export underlying Metal objects from Vulkan objects, and supports importing the appropriate existing Metal objects when creating Vulkan objects of types VkDeviceMemory, VkImage, VkSemaphore, and VkEvent,

The intent is that this extension will be advertised and supported only on implementations that are layered on top of Metal on Apple device platforms.

Method Details

nvkExportMetalObjectsEXT

public static void nvkExportMetalObjectsEXT(org.lwjgl.vulkan.VkDevice device,
 long pMetalObjectsInfo)

Unsafe version of: ExportMetalObjectsEXT

vkExportMetalObjectsEXT

public static void vkExportMetalObjectsEXT(org.lwjgl.vulkan.VkDevice device,
 VkExportMetalObjectsInfoEXT pMetalObjectsInfo)

Export Metal objects from the corresponding Vulkan objects.

C Specification

To export Metal objects that underlie Vulkan objects, call:

 void vkExportMetalObjectsEXT(
     VkDevice                                    device,
     VkExportMetalObjectsInfoEXT*                pMetalObjectsInfo);

Valid Usage (Implicit)

• device must be a valid VkDevice handle
• pMetalObjectsInfo must be a valid pointer to a VkExportMetalObjectsInfoEXT structure

See Also

VkExportMetalObjectsInfoEXT

Parameters:

device - the device that created the Vulkan objects.

pMetalObjectsInfo - a pointer to a VkExportMetalObjectsInfoEXT structure whose pNext chain contains structures, each identifying a Vulkan object and providing a pointer through which the Metal object will be returned.
