C Specification

To enable surface counters when creating a swapchain, add a VkSwapchainCounterCreateInfoEXT structure to the pNext chain of VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR. VkSwapchainCounterCreateInfoEXT is defined as:

// Provided by VK_EXT_display_control
typedef struct VkSwapchainCounterCreateInfoEXT {
    VkStructureType             sType;
    const void*                 pNext;
    VkSurfaceCounterFlagsEXT    surfaceCounters;
} VkSwapchainCounterCreateInfoEXT;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

  • pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

  • surfaceCounters is a bitmask of VkSurfaceCounterFlagBitsEXT specifying surface counters to enable for the swapchain.
