C Specification
To import memory created on the same physical device but outside of the
current Vulkan instance, add a VkImportMemoryWin32HandleInfoNV
structure to the pNext chain of the VkMemoryAllocateInfo
structure, specifying a handle to and the type of the memory.
The VkImportMemoryWin32HandleInfoNV structure is defined as:
// Provided by VK_NV_external_memory_win32
typedef struct VkImportMemoryWin32HandleInfoNV {
VkStructureType sType;
const void* pNext;
VkExternalMemoryHandleTypeFlagsNV handleType;
HANDLE handle;
} VkImportMemoryWin32HandleInfoNV;
Members
-
sTypeis a VkStructureType value identifying this structure. -
pNextisNULLor a pointer to a structure extending this structure. -
handleTypeis0or a VkExternalMemoryHandleTypeFlagBitsNV value specifying the type of memory handle inhandle. -
handleis a WindowsHANDLEreferring to the memory.
Description
If handleType is 0, this structure is ignored by consumers of the
VkMemoryAllocateInfo structure it is chained from.
