# VkExternalFormatQNX(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkExternalFormatQNX - Structure containing a QNX Screen buffer external format

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

To create an image with an QNX Screen external format, add a `VkExternalFormatQNX` structure in the `pNext` chain of VkImageCreateInfo. `VkExternalFormatQNX` is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_QNX_external_memory_screen_buffer
    typedef struct VkExternalFormatQNX {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        uint64_t           externalFormat;
    } VkExternalFormatQNX;

## Members

- `sType` is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

- `pNext` is `NULL` or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

- `externalFormat` is an implementation-defined identifier for the external format

## Description

If `externalFormat` is zero, the effect is as if the `VkExternalFormatQNX` structure was not present. Otherwise, the `image` will have the specified external format.

Valid Usage

- VUID-VkExternalFormatQNX-externalFormat-08956
  `externalFormat` must be `0` or a value returned in the `externalFormat` member of VkScreenBufferFormatPropertiesQNX by an earlier call to vkGetScreenBufferPropertiesQNX

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkExternalFormatQNX-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_EXTERNAL_FORMAT_QNX`
