# VkExportMetalObjectTypeFlagBitsEXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkExportMetalObjectTypeFlagBitsEXT - Bitmask specifying Metal object types that can be exported from a Vulkan object

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

Bits which indicate the types of Metal objects that may be exported from a corresponding Vulkan object are:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_metal_objects
    typedef enum VkExportMetalObjectTypeFlagBitsEXT {
        VK_EXPORT_METAL_OBJECT_TYPE_METAL_DEVICE_BIT_EXT = 0x00000001,
        VK_EXPORT_METAL_OBJECT_TYPE_METAL_COMMAND_QUEUE_BIT_EXT = 0x00000002,
        VK_EXPORT_METAL_OBJECT_TYPE_METAL_BUFFER_BIT_EXT = 0x00000004,
        VK_EXPORT_METAL_OBJECT_TYPE_METAL_TEXTURE_BIT_EXT = 0x00000008,
        VK_EXPORT_METAL_OBJECT_TYPE_METAL_IOSURFACE_BIT_EXT = 0x00000010,
        VK_EXPORT_METAL_OBJECT_TYPE_METAL_SHARED_EVENT_BIT_EXT = 0x00000020,
    } VkExportMetalObjectTypeFlagBitsEXT;

## Description

- `VK_EXPORT_METAL_OBJECT_TYPE_METAL_DEVICE_BIT_EXT` indicates a Metal `MTLDevice` may be exported.

- `VK_EXPORT_METAL_OBJECT_TYPE_METAL_COMMAND_QUEUE_BIT_EXT` indicates a Metal `MTLCommandQueue` may be exported.

- `VK_EXPORT_METAL_OBJECT_TYPE_METAL_BUFFER_BIT_EXT` indicates a Metal `MTLBuffer` may be exported.

- `VK_EXPORT_METAL_OBJECT_TYPE_METAL_TEXTURE_BIT_EXT` indicates a Metal `MTLTexture` may be exported.

- `VK_EXPORT_METAL_OBJECT_TYPE_METAL_IOSURFACE_BIT_EXT` indicates a Metal `IOSurface` may be exported.

- `VK_EXPORT_METAL_OBJECT_TYPE_METAL_SHARED_EVENT_BIT_EXT` indicates a Metal `MTLSharedEvent` may be exported.
