## C Specification

The VkMetalSurfaceCreateInfoEXT structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_metal_surface
    typedef struct VkMetalSurfaceCreateInfoEXT {
        VkStructureType                 sType;
        const void*                     pNext;
        VkMetalSurfaceCreateFlagsEXT    flags;
        const CAMetalLayer*             pLayer;
    } VkMetalSurfaceCreateInfoEXT;

## Members

- `sType` is the type of this structure.

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

- `flags` is reserved for future use.

- `pLayer` is a reference to a `CAMetalLayer` object representing a renderable surface.

## Description

- VUID-VkMetalSurfaceCreateInfoEXT-pNext-pNext
  `pNext` must be `NULL`

- VUID-VkMetalSurfaceCreateInfoEXT-flags-zerobitmask
