ash-direct-entry

This crate provides an EntryCustom that directly links to libvulkan, so situations where dlopen()-ing it is undesirable (e.g. NixOS) can be avoided.

Example

use ash::vk;
use ash_direct_entry::LibVulkan;

fn main() {
    let entry = LibVulkan::entry();

    let app_info = vk::ApplicationInfo {
        api_version: vk::make_api_version(0, 1, 0, 0),
        ..Default::default()
    };
    let create_info = vk::InstanceCreateInfo {
        p_application_info: &app_info,
        ..Default::default()
    };
    unsafe {
        entry.create_instance(&create_info, None).unwrap();
    }
}
