Vulkan fail to create swapchain on Wayland (Call to a X11 function ?) about bgfx HOT 9 CLOSED

Did you rebuild glfw with Wayland support enabled? AFAIK for glfw Wayland or X11 is a compile-time option and only one or the other can be built in at any given time.

from bgfx.

Also, on XWayland you should be creating an X11 window I believe. Wayland window is for native Wayland window only.

from bgfx.

Thanks for the fast answere :D!
Absolutely i have GLFW_BUILD_WAYLAND set on, otherwise it would not even compile.
I'm on Hyprland wich is a wayland window manager. XWayland is just here for compatibility with app that does not use wayland.

Thanks for confirming. I will try to have a look tomorrow. I recall testing this on Nvidia myself and I recall that the examples were working as intended.

Have you defined WL_EGL_PLATFORM when compiling your code? For some reason the X11 variant of the function is getting called.

from bgfx.

I didn't, so i tried, but it seems WL_EGL_PLATFORM isn't used ? i tried defining it with cmake but it tells me that it is not used. It doesn't change if i define it directly in my code either. same problem. if you can guide me if i did something wrong i would really apreciate it.

Well if you are building bgfx from source you need to modify the makefile:

This ensures that the wayland-specific Vulkan code gets built:

It worked,
I shouldn't have posted this issue here, i use bgfx.cmake wich is just a cmake wrapper around bgfx, and i didn't thought it could come frome that, but it did. sorry for that :/.
Thanks for the help :)!
