VkWaylandSurfaceCreateInfoKHR(3)

# VkWaylandSurfaceCreateInfoKHR(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkWaylandSurfaceCreateInfoKHR - Structure specifying parameters of a newly created Wayland surface object

## C Specification

The `VkWaylandSurfaceCreateInfoKHR` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_KHR_wayland_surface
    typedef struct VkWaylandSurfaceCreateInfoKHR {
        VkStructureType                   sType;
        const void*                       pNext;
        VkWaylandSurfaceCreateFlagsKHR    flags;
        struct wl_display*                display;
        struct wl_surface*                surface;
    } VkWaylandSurfaceCreateInfoKHR;

## Members

- `sType` is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

- `pNext` is `NULL` or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

- `flags` is reserved for future use.

- `display` and `surface` are pointers to the Wayland `wl_display` and `wl_surface` to associate the surface with.

## Description

Valid Usage

- VUID-VkWaylandSurfaceCreateInfoKHR-display-01304
  `display` must point to a valid Wayland `wl_display`

- VUID-VkWaylandSurfaceCreateInfoKHR-surface-01305
  `surface` must point to a valid Wayland `wl_surface`

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkWaylandSurfaceCreateInfoKHR-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_WAYLAND_SURFACE_CREATE_INFO_KHR

- VUID-VkWaylandSurfaceCreateInfoKHR-pNext-pNext
  `pNext` must be `NULL`

- VUID-VkWaylandSurfaceCreateInfoKHR-flags-zerobitmask
  `flags` must be `0`
