Crate gfx_core

Low-level graphics abstraction for Rust. Mostly operates on data, not types. Designed for use by libraries and higher-level abstractions only.

Re-exports

• pub use self::factory::Factory;

Modules

• buffer
  Memory buffers
• command
  Command Buffer device interface
• dummy
  Dummy backend implementation to test the code for compile errors outside of the graphics development environment.
• factory
  Resource factory
• format
  Universal format specification. Applicable to textures, views, and vertex buffers.
• handle
  Resource handles
• mapping
  Memory mapping
• memory
  Types to describe the properties of memory allocated for gfx resources.
• pso
  Raw Pipeline State Objects
• shade
  Shader handling.
• state
  Fixed-function hardware state.
• target
  Render target specification.
• texture
  Texture creation and modification.

Structs

• AdapterInfo
  Information about a backend adapater.
• Capabilities
  Features that the device supports.
• DomainShader
• Frame
  Handle to a backbuffer of the swapchain.
• GeometryShader
• HullShader
• PixelShader
• VertexShader

Enums

• IndexType
  A type of each index value in the slice’s index buffer
• Primitive
  Describes what geometric primitives are created from vertex data.
• ShaderSet
  A complete set of shaders to link a program. TODO: TransformFeedback
• SubmissionError

Constants

• MAX_COLOR_TARGETS
  Compile-time maximum number of color targets.
• MAX_CONSTANT_BUFFERS
  Compile-time maximum number of constant buffers.
• MAX_RESOURCE_VIEWS
  Compile-time maximum number of shader resource views (SRV).
• MAX_SAMPLERS
  Compile-time maximum number of samplers.
• MAX_UNORDERED_VIEWS
  Compile-time maximum number of unordered access views (UAV).
• MAX_VERTEX_ATTRIBUTES
  Compile-time maximum number of vertex attributes.

Traits

• Adapter
  Represents a physical or virtual device, which is capable of running the backend.
• CommandQueue
  Dummy trait for command queues. CommandBuffers will be later submitted to command queues instead of the device.
• Device
  A Device is responsible for submitting CommandBuffers to the GPU.
• QueueFamily
  QueueFamily denotes a group of command queues provided by the backend with the same properties/type.
• Resources
  Different types of a specific API.
• Surface
  A Surface abstracts the surface of a native window, which will be presented
• SwapChain
  The SwapChain is the backend representation of the surface. It consists of multiple buffers, which will be presented on the surface.

Type Aliases

• AttributeSlot
  Slot for an attribute.
• ColorSlot
  Slot for an active color buffer.
• ConstantBufferSlot
  Slot for a constant buffer object.
• InstanceCount
  Draw number of instances
• PatchSize
  Number of vertices in a patch
• ResourceViewSlot
  Slot for a shader resource view.
• SamplerSlot
  Slot for a sampler.
• SubmissionResult
• UnorderedViewSlot
  Slot for an unordered access object.
• VertexCount
  Draw vertex count.
