Due to the nature of the Vulkan interface, there is very little error
|
|
information available to the developer and application.
|
|
By enabling optional validation layers and using the +VK_EXT_debug_report+
|
|
extension, developers can: obtain much more detailed feedback on the
|
|
application's use of Vulkan.
|
|
This extension define a way for layers and the implementation to call back
|
|
to the application for events of interest to the application.

=== Examples
|
|
|
|
+VK_EXT_debug_report+ allows an application to register multiple callbacks
|
|
with the validation layers.
|
|
Some callbacks may log the information to a file, others may cause a debug
|
|
break point or other application defined behavior.
|
|
An application can register callbacks even when no validation layers are
|
|
enabled, but they will only be called for loader and, if implemented, driver
|
|
events.
|
|
|
|
To capture issues found while creating or destroying an instance an
|
|
application can link a sname:VkDebugReportCallbackCreateInfoEXT structure to
|
|
the pname:pNext element of the sname:VkInstanceCreateInfo structure given to
|
|
fname:vkCreateInstance.
|
|
This callback is only valid for the duration of the fname:vkCreateInstance
|
|
and the fname:vkDestroyInstance call.
|
|
Use flink:vkCreateDebugReportCallbackEXT to create persistent callback
|
|
objects.
|
|
|
|
Example uses: Create three callback objects.
|
|
One will log errors and warnings to the debug console using Windows
|
|
OutputDebugString.
|
|
The second will cause the debugger to break at that callback when an error
|
|
happens and the third will log warnings to stdout.

[NOTE]

.Note
|
|
====
|
|
In the initial release of the +VK_EXT_debug_report+ extension, the token
|
|
ename:VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_DEBUG_REPORT_CREATE_INFO_EXT was used.
|
|
Starting in version 2 of the extension branch,
|
|
ename:VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_DEBUG_REPORT_CALLBACK_CREATE_INFO_EXT is used
|
|
instead for consistency with Vulkan naming rules.
|
|
The older enum is still available for backwards compatibility.
