## Name

VkXcbSurfaceCreateInfoKHR - Structure specifying parameters of a newly created Xcb surface object

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkXcbSurfaceCreateInfoKHR` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_KHR_xcb_surface
    typedef struct VkXcbSurfaceCreateInfoKHR {
        VkStructureType               sType;
        const void*                   pNext;
        VkXcbSurfaceCreateFlagsKHR    flags;
        xcb_connection_t*             connection;
        xcb_window_t                  window;
    } VkXcbSurfaceCreateInfoKHR;

## 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.

- `connection` is a pointer to an `xcb_connection_t` to the X server.

- `window` is the `xcb_window_t` for the X11 window to associate the surface with.

## Description

Valid Usage

- VUID-VkXcbSurfaceCreateInfoKHR-connection-01310
  `connection` must point to a valid X11 `xcb_connection_t`

- VUID-VkXcbSurfaceCreateInfoKHR-window-01311
  `window` must be a valid X11 `xcb_window_t`

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkXcbSurfaceCreateInfoKHR-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_XCB_SURFACE_CREATE_INFO_KHR

- VUID-VkXcbSurfaceCreateInfoKHR-pNext-pNext
  `pNext` must be `NULL`

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