C Specification

The xrEnumerateSwapchainImages function is defined as:

// Provided by XR_VERSION_1_0
XrResult xrEnumerateSwapchainImages(
    XrSwapchain                                 swapchain,
    uint32_t                                    imageCapacityInput,
    uint32_t*                                   imageCountOutput,
    XrSwapchainImageBaseHeader*                 images);

Parameters

Parameter Descriptions

  • swapchain is the XrSwapchain to get images from.

  • imageCapacityInput is the capacity of the images array, or 0 to indicate a request to retrieve the required capacity.

  • imageCountOutput is a pointer to the count of images written, or a pointer to the required capacity in the case that imageCapacityInput is insufficient.

  • images is a pointer to an array of graphics API-specific XrSwapchainImage structures, all of the same type, based on XrSwapchainImageBaseHeader. It can be NULL if imageCapacityInput is 0.

  • See Buffer Size Parameters chapter for a detailed description of retrieving the required images size.

Description

Fills an array of graphics API-specific XrSwapchainImage structures. The resources must be constant and valid for the lifetime of the XrSwapchain.

Runtimes must always return identical buffer contents from this enumeration for the lifetime of the swapchain.

Note: images is a pointer to an array of structures of graphics API-specific type, not an array of structure pointers.

The pointer submitted as images will be treated as an array of the expected graphics API-specific type based on the graphics API used at session creation time. If the type member of any array element accessed in this way does not match the expected value, the runtime must return XR_ERROR_VALIDATION_FAILURE.

Note

Under a typical memory model, a runtime must treat the supplied pointer as an opaque blob beginning with XrSwapchainImageBaseHeader, until after it has verified the XrSwapchainImageBaseHeader::type.
