## Name

VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR - Structure specifying parameters of a newly created Win32 surface object

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_KHR_win32_surface
    typedef struct VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR {
        VkStructureType                 sType;
        const void*                     pNext;
        VkWin32SurfaceCreateFlagsKHR    flags;
        HINSTANCE                       hinstance;
        HWND                            hwnd;
    } VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR;

## 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.

- `hinstance` is the Win32 `HINSTANCE` for the window to associate the surface with.

- `hwnd` is the Win32 `HWND` for the window to associate the surface with.

## Description

Valid Usage

- VUID-VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR-hinstance-01307
  `hinstance` must be a valid Win32 `HINSTANCE`

- VUID-VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR-hwnd-01308
  `hwnd` must be a valid Win32 `HWND`

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_WIN32_SURFACE_CREATE_INFO_KHR`

- VUID-VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR-pNext-pNext
  `pNext` must be `NULL`

- VUID-VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR-flags-zerobitmask
  `flags` must be `0`
