Struct wgpu::Adapter

pub struct Adapter { /* fields omitted */ }

Handle to a physical graphics and/or compute device.

An Adapter can be used to open a connection to the corresponding device on the host system, yielding a [Device] object.

Instances and adapters do not have to be kept alive, only devices.

Methods

impl Adapter

pub fn request_device(
    &self,
    desc: &DeviceDescriptor,
    trace_path: Option<&Path>
) -> impl Future<Output = Result<(Device, Queue), RequestDeviceError>> + Send

Requests a connection to a physical device, creating a logical device. Returns the device together with a queue that executes command buffers.

Panics

• Extensions specified by desc are not supported by this adapter.
• Unsafe extensions were requested but enabled when requesting the adapter.
• Limits requested exceed the values provided by the adapter.
• Adapter does not support all features wgpu requires to safely operate.
