=========================

Name

----
|
||
|
vkGetInstanceProcAddr - Return a function pointer for a command
|
||
|
|
||
|
C Specification
|
||
|
---------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
include::../protos/vkGetInstanceProcAddr.txt[]
|
||
|
|
||
|
Parameters
|
||
|
----------
|
||
|
|
||
|
pname:instance::
|
||
|
The instance whose function pointer to query
|
||
|
|
||
|
pname:pName::
|
||
|
The name of the command
|
||
|
|
||
|
Description
|
||
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
||
|
fname:vkGetInstanceProcAddr returns a function pointer for the command
|
||
|
specified in pname:pName as it corresponds to pname:instance. Depending on the
|
||
|
operating system, supporting components, software environment and hardware
|
||
|
topology, the address returned for a single command name may be different for
|
||
|
different values of pname:instance.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If pname:instance is code:NULL, fname:vkGetInstanceProcAddr will return
|
||
|
non-code:NULL function pointers for the global commands
|
||
|
fname::vkEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties,
|
||
|
fname:vkEnumerateInstanceLayerProperties, and fname:vkCreateInstance. It will
|
||
|
return code:NULL for all other commands, since they may have different
|
||
|
implementations in different instances.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If pname:instance is a valid instance, fname:vkGetInstanceProcAddr will return
|
||
|
a non-code:NULL function pointer for any core command except the global
|
||
|
commands listed previously. It will also return non-code:NULL for any extension
|
||
|
command, if there is a layer or driver available that implements the extension.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The function pointers returned by fname:vkGetInstanceProcAddr may be used with
|
||
|
any object of the appropriate type derived from the pname:instance. For
|
||
|
example, the function pointer for a command with a sname:VkDevice first
|
||
|
parameter can be used with any sname:VkDevice object created from physical
|
||
|
devices belonging to the instance.

Return Value
|
||
|
------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Upon success, fname:vkGetInstanceProcAddr returns the address
|
||
|
(code:PFN_vkVoidFunction) of the command whose name is specified by pname:pName.
|
||
|
If pname:pName is not supported by the Vulkan library, then
|
||
|
fname:vkGetInstanceProcAddr returns code:NULL.
