This is a fork of Sascha Willems excellent Vulkan examples with some modifications.
- All of the code except for the VulkanDebug stuff has been ported to use the Vulkan C++ API
- All platform specific code for Windows and Linux has been consolidated to use GLFW 3.2
- Project files for Visual Studio have been removed in favor of a pure CMake based system
- Binary files have been removed in favor of CMake external projects
- Enable validation layers by default when building in debug mode
- Avoid excessive use of vkDeviceWaitIdle and vkQueueWaitIdle
- Avoid excessive use of explicit image layout transitions, instead using implicit transitions via the RenderPass and Subpass definitions
- I've only tested so far on Windows using VS 2013, 2015 & VS 2017.
- I'm still cleaning up after the migration to
Vulkan.hppso the code isn't as clean as it could be. Lots of unnecessary function parameters and structure assignments remain
Use the provided CMakeLists.txt for use with CMake to generate a build configuration for your toolchain. Using 64 bit builds is strongly recommended.
