# VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateInfoEXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateInfoEXT - Structure specifying parameters of a newly created DirectFB surface object

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateInfoEXT` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_directfb_surface
    typedef struct VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateInfoEXT {
        VkStructureType                    sType;
        const void*                        pNext;
        VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateFlagsEXT    flags;
        IDirectFB*                         dfb;
        IDirectFBSurface*                  surface;
    } VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateInfoEXT;

## 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.

- `dfb` is a pointer to the `IDirectFB` main interface of DirectFB.

- `surface` is a pointer to a `IDirectFBSurface` surface interface.

## Description

Valid Usage

- VUID-VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateInfoEXT-dfb-04117
  `dfb` must point to a valid DirectFB `IDirectFB`

- VUID-VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateInfoEXT-surface-04118
  `surface` must point to a valid DirectFB `IDirectFBSurface`

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateInfoEXT-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_DIRECTFB_SURFACE_CREATE_INFO_EXT`

- VUID-VkDirectFBSurfaceCreateInfoEXT-pNext-pNext
  `pNext` must be `NULL`

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