Vulkan FFI bindings and symbol loader for Rust
Latest supported Vulkan specification: 1.0.59 + all extensions
If you are looking for a safe and more Rust-like interface, checkout the dacite project.
Usage
Vks is available on crates.io. Add this to your Cargo.toml:
[dependencies]
vks = "0.21"
Windows
On Windows, linking vks requires vulkan-1.lib, if the feature function_prototypes is enabled.
Make sure the environment variable VULKAN_SDK points to the root of the LunarG Vulkan SDK. This is
the default, if you use the Vulkan SDK installer.
Cargo Features
function_prototypes Feature
Enabling this feature, will cause all function definitions to be included. Linking against Vulkan
(libvulkan.so.1 or vulkan-1.dll) is required in this case.
It is recommended to not use this feature, but instead load the Vulkan library dynamically at
runtime and acquire the symbol vkGetInstanceProcAddr. With just this symbol, you can then use
InstanceProcAddrLoader (and by extension, DeviceProcAddrLoader) to load all remaining function
pointers.
experimental Feature
Vks includes support for experimental Vulkan extensions (recognizable by the prefix KHX or
similar), but gates them behind a feature. The reason is, that these extensions can change in a
backwards-incompatible way, or even be removed in future Vulkan releases.
Be aware, that vks updates might break your code, if you use this feature. Everything behind this feature will be ignored in terms of Semantic Versioning requirements.
You should not ship code that depends on these extensions or uses the experimental feature.
Loader
Vks includes two convenience Vulkan symbol loaders: InstanceProcAddrLoader and
DeviceProcAddrLoader. Both support all available core Vulkan functions as well as extension
function pointers.
