(This is the documentation for SDL3, which is under heavy development and the API is changing! SDL2 is the current stable version!)

SDL_Vulkan_GetVkGetInstanceProcAddr

Get the address of the vkGetInstanceProcAddr function.

Header File

Defined in <SDL3/SDL_vulkan.h>

Syntax

SDL_FunctionPointer SDL_Vulkan_GetVkGetInstanceProcAddr(void);

Return Value

Returns the function pointer for vkGetInstanceProcAddr or NULL on error.

Remarks

This should be called after either calling SDL_Vulkan_LoadLibrary() or creating an SDL_Window with the SDL_WINDOW_VULKAN flag.

The actual type of the returned function pointer is PFN_vkGetInstanceProcAddr, but that isn't available because the Vulkan headers are not included here. You should cast the return value of this function to that type, e.g.

vkGetInstanceProcAddr = (PFN_vkGetInstanceProcAddr)SDL_Vulkan_GetVkGetInstanceProcAddr();

Version

This function is available since SDL 3.0.0.
